Survey paper explores neural network approximation theory and KANs

A new survey paper delves into the mathematical underpinnings of neural network expressivity, focusing on approximation theory. It reviews classical density results for single-hidden-layer networks and explores quantitative bounds that link approximation error to network size and function smoothness. The paper also highlights depth-width trade-offs and introduces recent theoretical attention on Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) as an alternative architectural paradigm. AI
