Abstract
In this paper we study the problem of the best approximation by linear methods of solutions to one Triebel-type equation. This problem was solved by using estimates of the linear widths of the unit ball in corresponding spaces of differentiable functions. According to the definition, linear widths give the best estimates for the approximation of compact sets in a given normed space by linear methods which are implemented through finite-dimensional operators. The problem includes answers to the questions about the solvability of the studied equation, the construction of the corresponding weighted space of differentiable functions, the development of a method for estimating linear widths of compact sets in weighted polynomial Sobolev space. In this work, conditions are obtained under which the considered operator has a bounded inverse. The weighted Sobolev space corresponding to the posed problem is determined. Upper estimates are obtained for the counting function for a sequence of linear widths, which correspond to the posed problem. One example is constructed in which two-sided estimates of linear widths are given. The method for solving this problem can be applied to the numerical solution of non-standard ordinary differential equations on an infinite axis.
