We deal in this work with quantitative results in the pointwise approximation of func tions by positive linear functionals and operators. One of the main objectives is to obtain estimates for the degree of approximation in terms of various types of second order moduli of continuity. In the category of sec ond order moduli we include both classical and newly introduced moduli. Particular attention is paid to optimizing the constants appearing in such estimates. In the last decades, the study of linear positive operators with the aid of second order moduli was intensive, thanks to their...
