In this paper we consider some analogs of the Korovkin approximation theorem via lacunary equistatistical convergence. In particular we study lacunary equi-statistical convergence of approximating operators on 𝐻𝑤2 spaces, the spaces of all real valued continuous functions 𝑓 dened on 𝐾 = [0, ∞)𝑚 and satisfying some special conditions. 1. Introduction Approximation theory has important applications in the theory of polynomial approximation, in various areas of functional analysis, numerical solutions of integral and differential equations [1–6]. In recent years, with the help of the concept of statistical convergence, various statistical approximation results have been proved [7]. In the usual sense, every convergent sequence is statistically convergent, but its converse is not always true. And, statistical convergent sequences do not need to be bounded. Recently, Aktuğlu and Gezer [8] generalized the idea of statistical convergence to lacunary equi-statistical convergences. In this paper, we first study some Korovkin type approximation theorems via lacunary equi- statistical convergence in 𝐻𝑤2 spaces. Then using the modulus of continuity, we study rates of lacunary equi-statistically convergence in 𝐻𝑤2 . We recall here the concepts of equi-statistical convergence and lacunary equi-statistical convergence. Let 𝑓 and 𝑓𝑟 belong to 𝐶(𝑋), which is the space of all continuous real valued functions on a compact subset 𝑋 of the real numbers. {𝑓𝑟 } is said to be equi-statistically convergent to 𝑓 on 𝑋 and denoted by 𝑓𝑟 𝑓 (equistat) if for every 𝜀 > 0, the sequence of real valued functions 𝑝𝑟,𝜀 (𝑥) := 1 {𝑚 ≤ 𝑟 : 𝑓𝑚 (𝑥) − 𝑓 (𝑥) ≥ 𝜀} 𝑟 (1) converges uniformly to the zero function on 𝑋, which means that lim 𝑝 (⋅)𝐶(𝑋) = 0. (2) 𝑟 → ∞ 𝑟,𝜀 A lacunary sequence 𝜃 = {𝑘𝑟 } is an integer sequence such that 𝑘0 = 0, ℎ𝑟 = 𝑘𝑟 − 𝑘𝑟−1 → ∞ as 𝑟 → ∞. (3) In this paper the intervals determined by 𝜃 will be denoted by 𝐼𝑟 = (𝑘𝑟−1 , 𝑘𝑟 ], and the ratio 𝑘𝑟 /𝑘𝑟−1 will be abbreviated by 𝑞𝑟 . Let 𝜃 be a lacunary sequence then {𝑓𝑟 }𝑟∈N is said to be lacunary equi-statistically convergent to 𝑓 on 𝑋 and denoted by 𝑓𝑟 𝑓 (𝜃-equistat) if for every 𝜀 > 0, the sequence of real valued functions {𝑠𝑟,𝜀 }𝑛∈N defined by 𝑠𝑟,𝜀 (𝑥) := 1 ℎ𝑟 {𝑚 ∈ 𝐼𝑟 : 𝑓𝑚 (𝑥) − 𝑓 (𝑥) ≥ 𝜀} (4) uniformly converges to zero function on 𝑋, which means that lim 𝑠 (⋅)𝐶(𝑋) = 0. (5) 𝑛 → ∞ 𝑟,𝜀 A Korovkin type approximation theorem by means of lacunary equi-statistical convergence was given in [8]. We can state this theorem now. An operator 𝐿 defined on a linear space of functions 𝑌 is called linear if 𝐿(𝛼𝑓 + 𝛽𝑔, 𝑥) = 𝛼𝐿(𝑓, 𝑥) + 𝛽𝐿(𝑔, 𝑥), for all 𝑓, 𝑔 ∈ 𝑌, 𝛼, 𝛽 ∈ R and is called positive, if 𝐿(𝑓, 𝑥) ≥ 0, for all 𝑓 ∈ 𝑌, 𝑓 ≥ 0. Let 𝑋 be a compact subset of R, and let 𝐶(𝑋) be the space of all continuous real valued functions on 𝑋. 2 Abstract and Applied Analysis Lemma 1 (see [8]). Let 𝜃 be a lacunary sequence, and let 𝐿 𝑟 : 𝐶(𝑋) → 𝐶(𝑋) be a sequence of positive linear operators satisfying 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑡V , 𝑥) 𝑥] , (𝜃-equistat) , V = 0, 1, 2, (6) then for all 𝑓 ∈ 𝐶(𝑋), 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓, 𝑥) 𝑓, (𝜃-equistat) . (7) 2. Lacunary Equistatistical Approximation In this section, using the concept of Lacunary equistatistical convergence, we give a Korovkin type result for a sequence of positive linear operators defined on 𝐶(𝐼𝑚 ), the space of all continuous real valued functions on the subset 𝐼𝑚 of R𝑚 , and the real 𝑚-dimensional space. We first consider the case of 𝑚 = 2. Following [7] we can state the following theorem. We turn to introducing some notation and the basic definitions used in this paper. Throughout this paper 𝐼 = [0, ∞). Let Theorem 2. Let 𝜃 = {𝑘𝑟 } be a lacunary sequence, and let {𝐿 𝑟 } be a sequence of positive linear operators from 𝐻𝑤2 into 𝐶𝐵 (𝐾).

Let {𝑓𝑟 } and {𝑔𝑟 } be two sequences of functions in 𝐻𝑤2 (𝐾), with 𝑓𝑟 − 𝑓 = 𝑜 (𝑟−𝛽1 ) , (𝜃-equistat) , 1 𝑠𝑟,𝜀 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝐻𝑤2 (𝐾) ≤ + −𝛽 1 𝑟 1 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝑠𝑟,𝜀 𝑟−𝛽 1 𝑠𝑟,𝜀 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝑟−𝛽1 + + 2 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝑠𝑟,𝜀 (57) Proof. Let 𝑓 ∈ 𝐻𝑤2 (𝐾) and 𝑥 ∈ 𝐾. Use 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) ≤ 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓 (𝑢, V) − 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) ; 𝑥, 𝑦) + 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓0 ; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝑢 𝑦 𝑥 V , ≤ 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑤2 (𝑓; − − ) ; 𝑥, 𝑦) 1 + 𝑢 1 + 𝑥 1 + V 1 + 𝑦 + 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓0 ; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓0 (𝑥, 𝑦) ≤ (1 + 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓0 ; 𝑥, 𝑦)) 𝑤2 (𝑓; 𝛿𝑟,𝑥 , 𝛿𝑟,𝑦 ) + 𝑀 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓0 ; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓0 (𝑥, 𝑦) = 2𝑤2 (𝑓; 𝛿𝑟,𝑥 , 𝛿𝑟,𝑦 ) + 𝑀 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓0 ; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓0 (𝑥, 𝑦) + 𝑤2 (𝑓; 𝛿𝑟,𝑥 , 𝛿𝑟,𝑦 ) 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓0 ; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓0 (𝑥, 𝑦) , (58) where 𝑀 = ‖𝑓‖𝐻𝑤 (𝐾) . Using inequality (62), conditions (i) 2 and (ii) we get 𝑟−𝛽 2 𝑠𝑟,𝜀 (𝑥, 𝑦) 𝑟−𝛽2 lim , (62) 1 1 {𝑟 ∈ 𝐼𝑟 : 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) ≥ 𝜀} = 0, ℎ𝑟 (63) 𝑟 → ∞ 𝑟−𝛽 Abstract and Applied Analysis 7 References so we have −𝛽 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) = 𝑜 (𝑟 ) , (𝜃-equistat) on 𝐾. (64) Finally we give the rate of lacunary equi-statistical convergence for the operators 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓, 𝑥) by using the Peetre’s 𝐾functional in the space 𝐻𝑤2 (𝐾). The Peetre 𝐾-functional of function 𝑓 ∈ 𝐻𝑤2 (𝐾) is defined by 𝐾 (𝑓; 𝛿𝑟,𝑥 , 𝛿𝑟,𝑦 ) = inf {𝑓 − 𝑔𝐶𝐵 (𝐾) + 𝛿𝑔𝐶𝐵 (𝐾) } , 𝑔∈𝐻𝑤 (𝐾) 2 (65) where 𝑓𝐶𝐵 (𝐾) = sup 𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) . 𝑥,𝑦 ∈𝐾 ( ) (66) Theorem 8. Let 𝑓 ∈ 𝐻𝑤2 (𝐾) and {𝐾(𝑓; 𝛿𝑟,𝑥 , 𝛿𝑟,𝑦 )} be the sequence of Peetre’s K-functional.

Proof. For each 𝑔 ∈ 𝐻𝑤2 (𝐾), we get 𝐿 𝑟 (𝑔; 𝑥, 𝑦) − 𝑔 (𝑥, 𝑦)𝐶𝐵 (𝐾) (68) 𝑥 ≤ 𝑔𝐶𝐵 (𝐾) (𝐿 𝑟 ((𝑓1 − ) ; 𝑥, 𝑦) 1+𝑥 𝐶𝐵 (𝐾) 𝑥 2 + 𝐿 𝑟 ((𝑓1 − ) ; 𝑥, 𝑦) ) 1+𝑥 𝑦 + 𝑔𝐶𝐵 (𝐾) (𝐿 𝑟 (𝑓2 − ) ) ; 𝑥, 𝑦 𝐶 (𝐾) 1+𝑦 𝐵 𝑦 2 + 𝐿 𝑟 ((𝑓2 − ) ) ; 𝑥, 𝑦 1+𝑦 = (𝛿𝑟,𝑥 , 𝛿𝑟,𝑦 ) 𝑔𝐶𝐵 (𝐾).
