Rational approximation on infinite intervals (Q1776489)

The author summarizes some approximation properties of polynomials of degree at most \(2n\) with weight \((1+x^2)^{-n}\) on the real line and polynomials of degree at most \(n\) with weight \((a+x^2)^{-n}\) on the real line and polynomials of degree at most \(n\) with weight \((1+t)^{-n}\) on the interval \([0,\infty)\). The author mainly discusses an analogous situation with algebraic polynomials, results for approximation on \((-\infty ,\infty)\) by function from \(Q_n\) (the space of polynomials of degree \(2n\) or less weighted by \((1+x^2)^{-n})\) and approximation on the half-line \([0,\infty)\).
