The Korovkin theorem states that positive linear operators converge uniformly to the identity on every continuous function if they do so on the three test functions .
Let denote the th elementary symmetric polynomial of . Expanding both sides of the Marsden identity in powers of and equating the coefficient of gives
Thus , while and are respectively the means of the interior knots and of their pairwise products.
The Schoenberg spline operator is positive and . If , then both and lie in , so
Because averages products of knots in the same interval and all points lie in ,
The Korovkin theorem now proves
for every .
