Shapiro’s lethargy theorem [48] states that if {An} is any non-trivial linear approximation scheme on a Banach space X ,t hen the sequences of errors of best approximation E(x,An )=i nfa∈An ∥x − an∥X may decay almost arbitrarily slowly. Recently, Almira and Oikhberg [11, 12] investigated this kind of result for general approximation schemes in the quasi-Banach setting. In this paper, we consider the same question for F-spaces with non decreasing metric d .W e also provide applications to the…

Extensions of Bernstein's Lethargy Theorem

In this paper, we examine the aptly-named "Lethargy Theorem" of Bernstein and survey its recent extensions. We show that one of these extensions shrinks the interval for best approximation by half…

Subspace Condition for Bernstein's Lethargy Theorem

In this paper, we consider a condition on subspaces in order to improve bounds given in the Bernstein's Lethargy Theorem (BLT) for Banach spaces. Let $d_1 \geq d_2 \geq \dots d_n \geq \dots > 0$ be…

Bernstein Lethargy Theorem and Reflexivity

In this paper, we prove the equivalence of reflexive Banach spaces and those Banach spaces which satisfy the following form of Bernstein's Lethargy Theorem. Let $X$ be an arbitrary…

Counterexamples to a conjecture of Grothendieck

In his thesis ([7] II. p. 136) and in his fundamental paper ([6] p. 74), Grothendieck formulated the following conjecture: If two Banach spaces X and Y are such that their injective and projective…

ABSTRACT We show that generalized approximation spaces can be used to describe the relatively compact sets of Banach spaces. This leads to compactness and convergence criteria in the approximation…

Approximation spaces, in their many presentations, are well known mathematical objects and many authors have studied them for long time. They were introduced by Butzer and Scherer in 1968 and,…

Constructive Approximation

This paper works on [-1, 1 ] and obtains Markov-type estimates for the derivatives of polynomials from a rather wide family of classes of constrained polynomes and results turn out to be sharp.
