Abstract: In 1924 S.Bernstein asked for conditions on a uniformly bounded on mathbbR Borel function (weight) w:mathbbRo[0,+infty) which imply the denseness of algebraic polynomials mathcalP in the seminormed space Cw0 defined as the linear set finC(mathbbR)|w(x)f(x)o0mboxas|x|o+infty equipped with the seminorm |f|w:=supxinmathbbRw(x)|f(x)|. In 1998 A.Borichev and M.Sodin completely solved this problem for all those weights w for which mathcalP is dense in Cw0 but there exists a positive integer n=n(w) such that mathcalP is not dense in C(1+x2)nw0. In the present paper we establish that if mathcalP is dense in C(1+x2)nw0 for all ngeq0 then for arbitrary varepsilon>0 there exists a weight WvarepsiloninCinfty(mathbbR) such that mathcalP is dense in C(1+x2)nWvarepsilon,0 for every ngeq0 and Wvarepsilon(x)geqw(x)+mathrmevarepsilon|x| for all xinmathbbR.
