Abstract

With the aid of the extension of the energy space, the synthesis method is interpreted in two ways: as the best approximation method and as the Galerkin-Petrov method in a new space. For elliptic problems one considers the problem of estimating the convergence rate of the mentioned method in norms which are generalizations of the Sobolev and Holder norms.
