by Shayne Waldron


Abstract:

It is shown that the standard method of obtaining direct (Jackson) theorems for the order of best uniform approximation by algebraic polynomials from those for trigonometric polynomials also provides inverse (Bernstein) theorems.


Keywords: Bernstein theorem, inverse theorem, Jackson theorem, direct theorem, Ditzian-Totik moduli of smoothness
