Abstract

The following result was announced in the earlier version(s) of this paper: On weakly compactly generated Banach spaces which admit a Lipschitz, C^{p} smooth bump function, one can uniformly approximate uniformly continuous, bounded, real-valued functions by Lipschitz, C^{p} smooth functions. Unfortunately, there is a gap in the proof which renders the proof in its present form incorrect
