Polynomial approximation on convex polytopes in \(\mathbf{R}^d\) is considered in uniform and \(L^p\)-norms. For an appropriate modulus of smoothness matching direct and converse estimates are proven. In the \(L^p\)-case so called strong direct and converse results are also verified. The equivalence of the moduli of smoothness with an appropriate \(K\)-functional follows as a consequence.
The results solve a problem that was left open since the mid 1980s when some of the present findings were established for special, so-called simple polytopes.
