We investigate the approximation ofd-variate periodic functions in Sobolev spaces of dominating mixed (fractional) smoothnesson thed-dimensional torus, where the approximation error is measured in the-norm. In other words, we study the approximation numbersof the Sobolev embeddings, with particular emphasis on the dependence on the dimensiond. For any fixed smoothness, we find two-sided estimates for the approximation numbers as a function innandd. We observe super-exponential decay of the constants ind, ifn, the number of linear samples off, is large. In addition, motivated by numerical implementation issues, we also focus on the error decay that can be achieved by approximations using only a few linear samples (smalln). We present some surprising results for the so-called “preasymptotic” decay and point out connections to the recently introduced notion of quasi-polynomial tractability of approximation problems.
