Blending type approximation by modified Bernstein operators (Q2062310): Difference between revisions

The authors define a family of generalized Bernstein operators which reproduce linear functions. They prove an approximation theorem using the Bohman-Korovkin criterion and obtain an estimate of the rate of approximation by using the modulus of smoothness. A Voronovskaya formula for these operators is also given and the rate of approximation for differentiable functions whose derivatives are of bounded variation is described. Finally, the theoretical results are illustrated by using MAPLE software.
