Abstract In the present paper we give a Korovkin type approximation theorem for a sequence of positive linear operators acting from L p [a, b] into itself using the concept of A-summation processes. We also study the rate of convergence of these operators.

1 Introduction Korovkin theorems provide conditions for whether a given sequence of positive linear operators converges to the identity operator in the space of continuous functions on a compact interval (see, [9]). Some results concerning Korovkin type approximation theorems in the space L p [a, b] of Lebesgue integrable functions on a compact interval may be found in [5]. Quantitative Korovkin theorems for approximation by positive linear operators in L p [a, b] spaces have also been studied in [3,4,16,17]. In order to get stronger results it is useful to use certain summation processes. We first recall some basic concepts used throughout the paper. Let L p [a, b] , 1 ≤ p < ∞, denote the space of measurable real valued pth power  1/ p b Lebesgue integrable functions f on [a, b] with  f  p = a | f | p dμ .

Let T : L p → L p be a linear operator. Recall that T is a positive operator if T f ≥ 0 whenever f ≥ 0. If T is a positive linear operator then f ≤ g implies that T f ≤ T g, and | f | ≤ g implies that |T f | ≤ T g. The operator norm T  L p →L p is given by T  L p →L p = sup f  p =1 T f  p .     (n) Let A := A(n) = ak j be a sequence of infinite matrices with nonnegative real   entries. A sequence T j of positive linear operators  from L p [a, b] into itself is called a  strong A- summation process in L p [a, b] if T j f is strongly A-summable to f for every f ∈ L p [a, b] , i.e., (n)

Some results concerning strong summation processes in L p [a, b] may be found in [14].   A sequence T j of positive linear from L p [a, b] into itself is called an A  operators summation process in L p [a, b] if T j f is A-summable to f for every f ∈ L p [a, b] , i.e.,

where it is assumed that the series converges for each k, n and f. Recall that a sequence of   (n) real numbers x j is said to be A-summable to L if limk j ak j x j = L , uniformly in n (see [2,15]). Results concerning summation processes on other spaces may be found in
