Abstract: | We study the relationship between several extremum problems for unbounded linear operators of convolution type in the spaces , m ≥ 1, 1 ≤ γ ≤ ∞. For the problem of calculating the modulus of continuity of the convolution operatorA on the function classQ defined by a similar operator and for the Stechkin problem on the best approximation of the operatorA on the classQ by bounded linear operators, we construct dual problems in dual spaces, which are the problems on, respectively, the best and the worst approximation to a class of functions by another class.
