Diese Monographie enthält die erste vollständige Darstellung der Korovkinschen Approximationstheorie in Funktionsräumen und ihre Anwendungen. Das Buch gibt einen Überblick über klassische und moderne Resultate unter Berücksichtigung neuester Ergebnisse.
Das Buch wendet sich vor allem an Mathematiker mit den Interessengebieten Funktionalanalysis und Approximationstheorie, ist aber auch für fortgeschrittene Studenten als Begleittext einer entsprechenden Vorlesung geeignet.

This book provides a comprehensive exposition of Korovkin-type approximation theory in function spaces. It is the first monographon on this topic and is mainly addressed to mathematicians working in functional analysis and approximation theory
Summary of contents:
Chapter 1: Preliminaries
Chapter 2: Korovkin-type theorems for bounded positive Radon measures
Chapter 3: Korovkin-type theorems for positive linear operators
Chapter 4: Korovkin-type theorems for the identity operator
Chapter 5: Applications to positive approximation processes on real intervals
Chapter 6: Applications to positive approximation processes on convex compact sets

The series is devoted to the publication of monographs and high-level textbooks in mathematics, mathematical methods and their applications. Apart from covering important areas of current interest, a major aim is to make topics of an interdisciplinary nature accessible to the non-specialist. The works in this series are addressed to advanced students and researchers in mathematics and theoretical physics. In addition, it can serve as a guide for lectures and seminars on a graduate level. The series de Gruyter Studies in Mathematics was founded ca. 35 years ago by the late Professor Heinz Bauer and Professor Peter Gabriel with the aim to establish a series of monographs and textbooks of high standard, written by scholars with an international reputation presenting current fields of research in pure and applied mathematics.While the editorial board of the Studies has changed with the years, the aspirations of the Studies are unchanged. In times of rapid growth of mathematical knowledge carefully written monographs and textbooks written by experts are needed more than ever, not least to pave the way for the next generation of mathematicians. In this sense the editorial board and the publisher of the Studies are devoted to continue the Studies as a service to the mathematical community. Please submit any book proposals to Niels Jacob.
