Abstract
In this paper, we have solved several extremal problems of the best mean-square approximation of functions f on the semiaxis with a power-law weight. In the Hilbert space L 2 with a power-law weight t2α+1 we obtain Jackson-Stechkin type inequalities between the value of the Eσ(f)-best approximation of a function f(t) by partial Hankel integrals of an order not higher than σ over the Bessel functions of the first kind and the k-th order generalized modulus of smoothnes ωk(Brf,t), where B is a second-order differential operator.
