Abstract In the present paper, we study a Korovkin type approximation theorem in the setting of K a -convergence that contains the classical result. We also study the rate of K a convergence and afterwards, we give some concluding remarks.

1 Introduction The notion of statistical convergence was first introduced by Fast [3] and Steinhaus [12], independently and studied by many authors [4,5,14]. Let E be a subset of N, the set of natural numbers, then the natural density of E, denoted by δ(E), is given by: 1 δ(E) := lim |{k ≤ n : k ∈ E }| n n whenever the limit exists, where |B| denotes the cardinality of the set B [11]. Then a sequence x = (xk ) of numbers is statistically convergent to l provided that, for every ε > 0, δ ({k ∈ N : |xk − l| ≥ ε}) = 0. In this case we write st − lim xk = l [3,12]. We note that every convergent sequence is statisk

tically convergent, but not conversely. Also, as it is well known, statistical convergence and almost convergence [9,10] overlap. These convergence methods provide interesting results in summability theory and play a vital role not only in pure mathematics but also in other

branches of science involving mathematics. Another interesting  convergence method is K a convergence [8]. If the sequence x = (xk ) is convergent and ∞ k=1 |ak | < ∞, then it is K a -convergent, too. It is now natural to ask whether these three convergence methods contain each other. Our answer is no, i.e. these methods are overlap, neither contains the other. In the present paper, we study a Korovkin type approximation theorem via K a -convergence and the rate of K a -convergence and afterwards, we give some concluding remarks. We now turn our attention to the K a -convergence: The idea of K a -convergence was defined by Lazic and Jovovic in 1993 [8], which is obviously associated to the matrix ⎞ ⎛ a1 0 0 0 . . . ⎟ ⎜ a2 a1 0 0 ⎟ ⎜ ⎟. ⎜ A = ⎜ a3 a2 a1 0 ⎟ ⎠ ⎝ . . Let a  = (ak ) and x = (xk ) be number sequences, set K a (x) = y, where y = (yk ) and k yk = i=1 ak−i+1 xi (k = 1, 2, 3, . . .), then we say that y = (yk ) is the K a -transformation of the x = (xk ). Definition 1.1 [8] The sequence x = (xk ) of real numbers is said to be K a -convergent to the number l if, its K a -transformation y = (yk ) converges to the number l, i.e. lim yk = l. k

This limit is denoted by K a − lim xk = l. k

Proposition 1.2 [8] Let a = (ak ) be a number sequence and the series convergent, i.e. ∞ |ak | < ∞.
