The paper deals with the generalized Bernstein problem on weighted lacunary polynomial approximation. Let \(M(\Lambda)\) denote the space of lacunary polynomials which are finite linear combinations of the system \(\{t^\lambda: \lambda\in\Lambda\}\), where \(\Lambda: \{\lambda_n: n= 1,2,\dots\}\) is a sequence of increasing nonnegative integers. Let a weight \(\alpha\) be an even nonnegative function continuous on \(R\) such that \(\lim_{|t|\to\infty}{\alpha(t)\over\log|t|}= \infty\) and \[ L^p_\alpha= \Biggl\{f: \| f\|_{p,\alpha}= \Biggl(\int^\infty_{-\infty}|f(t)^{-\alpha(t)}|^p\,dt\Biggr)^{1/p}<\infty\Biggr\},\quad 1\leq p<\infty. \] The main result of the authors is the following Theorem: Suppose \(\alpha(e^t)\) is a convex function on \(R\). Then \(M(\Lambda)\) is dense in \(L^p_\alpha\) \((1\leq p<\infty)\) if and only if \[ \int^\infty_1\alpha(\exp\{\lambda_1(t)- a\})/t^2\,dt= \int\text{ and }\int^\infty_1\alpha\Biggl(\exp\Biggl\{{\alpha_2(t)- a\over t^2}\Biggr\}\Biggr)\,dt= \infty \] for each \(a\in R\), where \[ \begin{aligned} \lambda_1(r) &= 2\sum_{\lambda_n\leq r,\lambda_n\text{odd}}{1\over\lambda_n},\quad r\geq \lambda_1;\quad \lambda_1(r)= 0,\quad r<\lambda_1,\\ \lambda_2(r) &= 2\sum_{\lambda_n\leq r,\lambda_n\text{even}}{1\over\lambda_n},\quad r\geq \lambda_1;\quad \lambda_2(r)= 0,\quad r< \lambda_1.\end{aligned} \]
