We study multivariate linear tensor product problems with some special properties in the worst case setting. We consider algorithms that use finitely many continuous linear functionals. We use a unified method to investigate tractability of the above multivariate problems, and obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for strong polynomial tractability, polynomial tractability, quasi-polynomial tractability, uniformly weak tractability, $(s,t)$-weak tractability, and weak tractability. Our results can apply to multivariate approximation problems with kernels corresponding to Euler kernels, Wiener kernels, Korobov kernels, Gaussian kernels, and analytic Korobov kernels.
