Subespacios densos de $C[0,1]$. Teoremas de Stone-Weierstrass y de M\"untz-Sz\'asz

Abstract

In this work, we look into some results about dense subspaces of $C[0,1]$. Being our starting point the Weierstrass' Approximation Theorem, we study generalization of this in two directions: the first one studying subspaces which also have algebra structure, where the main result will be the Stone-Weierstrass theorem, and the second one will be considering subspaces generated by sets of monomials whose exponents satisfy certain properties, where the central result will be the M\"untz-Sz\'asz theorem. Finally, we gather some of the most recent advances from this topic.
