Abstract

We discuss the relations among the best approximation E n (f) and the Fourier coefficients of a function, \( \hat f(n) \in C,n = 0, \pm 1, \pm 2, \ldots , \) under the conditions that \( \{ \hat f(n)\} _{n = 0}^\infty \in MVBVS^* \) and \( \{ \hat f(n) + f( - n)\} _{n = 0}^\infty \in MVBVS^* \), where MVBVS* is the class of the so-called Strong Mean Value Bounded Variation Sequences.
