Abstract

In this paper, among other things, we show that, given r∈N, there is a constant c=c(r) such that if f∈C r [−1,1] is convex, then there is a number N=N(f,r), depending on f and r, such that for n≥N, there are convex piecewise polynomials S of order r+2 with knots at the nth Chebyshev partition, satisfying |f(x)−S(x)|≤c(r)(min⁡{1−x 2 ,n −1 1−x 2 }) r ω 2 (f (r) ,n −1 1−x 2 ), for all x∈[−1,1]. Moreover, N cannot be made independent of f.
