Approximation by modified Szasz-Mirakjan operators on weighted spaces (Q1860620): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the modified Szász-Mirakyan operators \({S_n(f;x)}\) \[ S_n(f;x):= \exp(-a_nx)\sum_{k=0}^{\infty}\frac{(a_n x)^k}{k!} f\left(\frac{k}{b_n}\right),\quad x\in [0,+\infty), \] where \(\{a_n\}\), \(\{b_n\}\) are given increasing and unbounded sequences of positive numbers such that \({a_n/b_n=1+O(1/b_n)}\). Theorems of convergence of \({S_n(f;x)}\) to \(f\) are obtained in spaces of continuous on \({[0,+\infty)}\) functions satisfying \({\lim_{x\to+\infty} f(x)/(1+x^2)=k(f)}\). The authors define a weighted modulus of continuity and by this modulus they obtain the rate of convergence of \(S_n(f)\) to \(f\). Korovkin-type theorems are widely used in the study. Similar results for functions of two variables are obtained.
