Since their discovery the simplicity and, at the same time, the power of the
classical theorems of Korovkin impressed several mathematicians.
During the last thirty years a considerable amount of research extended these
theorems to the setting of different function spaces or more general abstract
spaces such as Banach lattices, Banach algebras, Banach spaces and so on.
This work, in fact, delineated a new theory that we may now call Korovkin-
type approximation theory.
At the same time, strong and fruitful connections of this theory have been
revealed not only with classical approximation theory, but also with other fields
such as functional analysis, harmonic analysis, measure theory, probability the-
ory and partial differential equations.
This has been accomplished by a large number of mathematicians ranging
from specialists in approximation theory to functional analysts.
A selected part of the theory is already documented in the monographs of
Donner [1982J and Keimel and Roth [1992].
With this book we hope to contribute further to the subject by presenting a
modern and comprehensive exposition of the main aspects of the theory in
spaces of continuous functions (vanishing at infinity, respectively) defined on a
compact space (a locally compact space, respectively), together with its main
applications.
We have chosen to treat these function spaces since they playa central role in
the whole theory and are the most useful for the applications.
Besides surveying both classical and recent results in the field, the book also
contains a certain amount of new material. In any case, the majority of the
results appears in a book for the first time.

In this paper, using the concept ofA-statistical convergence which is a regular(non-matrix) summability method, we obtain a general Korovkin type approximation theorem which concerns the problem of approximating a function f by means of a sequence {Lnf } of positive linear operators.
A capacitor or condenser is a passive electronic component consisting of a pair of conductors separated by a dielectric (insulator). When a potential difference (voltage) exists across the conductors, an electric field is present in the dielectric. This field stores energy and produces a mechanical
A bolometer is a device for measuring the energy of incident electromagnetic radiation. It consists of an "absorber" connected to a heat sink through an insulating link. The result is that any radiation absorbed by the absorber raises its temperature above that of the heat sink; then the higher the
