The main purpose of this paper is to prove some density results of polynomials in Fock spaces of slice regular functions. The spaces can be of two different kinds since they are equipped with different inner products and contain different…

By the celebrated Weierstrass Theorem the set of algebraic polynomials is dense in the space of continuous functions on a compact set in R^d. In this paper we study the following question: does the density hold if we approximate only by…

A classical result in approximation theory states that for any continuous function \( \varphi: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} \), the set \( \operatorname{span}\{\varphi \circ g : g \in \operatorname{Aff}(\mathbb{R})\} \) is dense in \(…

A compact subset $K$ of the complex plane $\C$ is a set of polynomial (respectively rational) approximation if $P(K)=A(K)$ (respectively $R(K)=A(K)$), where $P(K)$ (respectively $R(K)$) is the family of functions on $K$ which are uniform…
