Korkmasov, F. M. Approximation of continuous functions by the de la Vallée Poussin means for the discrete Fourier-Jacobi sums. (Russian) Zbl 1097.42020 Vladikavkaz. Mat. Zh. 6, No. 2, 21-38 (2004). Given an arbitrary continuous function on the interval \([-1,1]\), the author constructs the de la Vallée Poussin-type means for discrete Fourier-Jacobi sums over the orthonormal system of the classical Jacobi polynomials of degree at most \(N\) on the discrete set of the zeros of the Jacobi polynomial of degree \(N\). It is shown that, under certain relations between \(N\) and the parameters in the definition of de la Vallée Poussin means, the latter approximate a continuous function with the best approximation rate in the space \(C[-1,1]\) of continuous functions.{The paper is identical to [F.
