Résumé

In what follows, $C[-1,1]$ is the space of continuous functions $f\colon[-1,1]\to\mathbb R$ with uniform norm, $P_k$ are the Legendre polynomials such that $P_k(1)=1$, $J_0$ is the Bessel function of zero index. We consider sequences of linear operators (summation methods) $U_n\colon C[-1,1]\to C[-1,1]$ determined by a multiplier function $\varphi$: $$ U_nf(y)=\int\limits_{-1}^1f(x)\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\varphi(k/n)(k+1/2)P_k(y)P_k(x)\,dx. $$ The norms $\mathfrak L_n$ of the operators $U_n$ are called the Lebesgue constants of the summation method. The main result is the following. If $\varphi$ is continuous on $[0,+\infty)$, \begin{gather*} \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\varphi^2(k/n)(k+1/2)\infty \text{ for each
