Abstract:For arbitrary Banach spaces Butzer and Scherer in 1968 showed that the approximation order of best approximation can characterized by the order of certain K-functionals. This general theorem has many applications such as the characterization of the best approximation of algebraic polynomials by moduli of smoothness involving the Legendre, Chebyshev, or more general the Jacobi transform. In this paper we introduce a family of seminorms on the underlying approximation space which leads to a generalization of the… Show more
