Korovkin-type approximation results through summability methods in the Applied Science

Abstract: We present Korovkin approximation theorems that incorporate summability methods. These result allows us to obtain a unified treatment of several previous results, focusing on the underlying structure and the properties that a summability method should satisfy in order to establish a Korovkin-type approximation result. As a by-product we obtain new Korovkin-type results incorporating summability methods, for example for regular matrix convergence methods, convergence through ideals of natural numbers, etc, and we provide further directions and a preparation for questions which remain open.
