Abstract:
The following inequalities are shown to hold for the least uniform rational deviations Rn(f) of a function f(x), continuous and convex in the interval [a,b]:
Rn(f)⩽C(ν)Ω(f)n−1ν times⏞ln…lnn
(ν is an integer, C(ν) depends only on ν, and Ω(f) is the total oscillation of f);
Rn(f)⩽C1(ν)n−1ν times⏞ln…lnninf
(\nu is an integer, C_1(\nu) depends only on \nu, \varkappa_n=\exp(-n/(500\ln^2n))), \omega(\delta,f) is the modulus of continuity of f, and M(f)=\max|f(x)|.
