Direct Estimates of the Weighted Simultaneous Approximation by the Baskakov Operator Borislav R. Draganov Abstract. We establish direct estimates of the rate of weighted simultaneous approximation by the Baskakov operator for smooth functions in the supremum norm on the non-negative semi-axis. We consider Jacobitype weights. The estimates are stated in terms of appropriate moduli of smoothness or K-functionals. Mathematics Subject Classification. 41A17, 41A25, 41A28, 41A35, 41A81. Keywords. Baskakov operator, Jackson inequality, direct estimate, simultaneous approximation, modulus of smoothness, K-functional.
1. Main Results The Baskakov operator for a function f defined on [0, ∞) and n ∈ N+ is given by (see [4, (6)]) ∞ k n+k−1 k Vn f (x) := f x (1 + x)−n−k , x ≥ 0. vn,k (x), vn,k (x) := k n k=0
Baskakov showed that if f is continuous on [0, ∞) and f (x) = f (R) for x > R with some R > 0, then (see [4, Theorem 1]) lim Vn f (x) = f (x),

as the convergence is uniform on the compact subsets of [0, ∞). He also proved in [4, Corollary 3] that if f is continuous and bounded on [0, ∞) and has a second derivative at the point x0 , then 1 x(1 + x) f (x0 ) + o Vn f (x0 ) = f (x0 ) + .

An estimate of the convergence in (1.1) in the uniform norm on [0, ∞) was proved by Totik [24, Theorem 1 and p. 175]. He showed that Vn f − f ≤ c ωϕ2 (f, n−1/2 )

A direct estimate in weighted spaces using again only a modulus of continuity, which is a modification of ω(f, t)w was established by L´opezMoreno [19, Theorem 4] with weights of the form w(0, −m), where m ∈ N0 . However, there the weight in the norm of the error is smaller than the one associated with the approximated function. Direct point-wise estimates for the simultaneous approximation by combinations of Baskakov operators were obtained in [26,27] for w = 1, and in [23] for w(a, −b), where 0 < a < 1 and b ≥ 0. In [23] weak converse estimates were also established. Recently, Aral and Tachev [2] proved general point-wise V
