On one rational integral operator of Fourier – Chebyshev type and approximation of Markov functions

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to construct an integral rational Fourier operator based on the system of Chebyshev – Markov rational functions and to study its approximation properties on classes of Markov functions. In the introduction the main results of well-known works on approximations of Markov functions are present. Rational approximation of such functions is a well-known classical problem. It was studied by A. A. Gonchar, T. Ganelius, J.-E. Andersson, A. A. Pekarskii, G. Stahl and other authors. In the main part an integral operator of the Fourier – Chebyshev type with respect to the rational Chebyshev – Markov functions, which is a rational function of order no higher than n is introduced, and approximation of Markov functions is studied.
