Abstract: The purpose of this article is to provide new error estimates for a popular type of SBF approximation on the sphere: approximating by linear combinations of Green's functions of polyharmonic differential operators. We show that the $L_p$ approximation order for this kind of approximation is $sigma$ for functions having $L_p$ smoothness $sigma$ (for $sigma$ up to the order of the underlying differential operator, just as in univariate spline theory). This is an improvement over previous error estimates, which penalized the approximation order when measuring error in $L_p$, p>2 and held only in a restrictive setting when measuring error in $L_p$, p<2.
