Abstract

In a recent paper, I introduced new moduli of smoothness for functions on the sphere which did not use averages and, as a result, had some interesting properties. The direct, Jackson-type, estimate of the best approximation by spherical harmonics using the new moduli will be proved here. Equivalence with the appropriate K-functionals will be given. Relations with the moduli used earlier will be shown and used to prove new results for these moduli.
