Abstract
In this research, we look at problems in the theory of approximation of functions in real Clifford algebras. We prove analogues of direct and inverse approximation theorems in terms of best approximations of functions with bounded spectrum and the moduli of smoothness of all orders constructed by the generalized Steklov operators.
