Approximation on variable exponent spaces by linear integral operators (Q2406897)

This paper deals with the approximation of functions by linear integral operators on variable exponent spaces associated with a general exponent function on a domain of a Euclidean space. Under a log-Holder continuity assumption of the exponent function, the authors present quantitative estimates for the approximation and solve an open problem raised in the earlier work. As applications of key estimates, they provide high orders of approximation by quasi-interpolation type and linear combinations of Bernstein type integral operators on variable exponent spaces. The authors also introduce \(K\)-functionals and moduli of smoothness on variable exponent spaces and discuss their relationships and applications.
