Abstract
One important topic in approximation theory is the approximation by linear operators of convolution type. In many cases of interest the kernels are, for example, integrable functions or bounded measures, thus belong to certain Banach algebras. As the approximation is governed by a detailed study of the kernels, it seems to be natural to look on this section of approximation theory from the point of view of abstract Banach algebras, particularly since the Gelfand transform may be used as a substitute for integral transforms, the most effective tool in the classical setting.
