Abstract

Let a 2π2\pi-periodic function fCf\in\Bbb C changes its monotonicity at a finitely even number of points yiy_i of the period. The degree of approximation of this ff by trigonometric polynomials which are comonotone with it, i.e. that change their monotonicity exactly at the points yiy_i where ff does, is restricted by ω2(f,π/n)\omega_2(f,\pi/n) (with a constant depending on the location of these yiy_i). Recently, we proved that relaxing the comonotonicity requirement in intervals of length proportional to π/n\pi/n about the points yiy_i (so called nearly comonotone approximation) allows the polynomials to achieve the approximation rate of ω3\omega_3. By constructing a counterexample, we show here that even with the relaxation of the requirement of comonotonicity for the polynomials on sets with measures approaching 00 (no matter how slowly or how fast) ω4\omega_4 is not reachable.
