Pointwise weighted approximation by Bernstein operators (Q1882124)

In this paper the authors consider the pointwise weighted approximation by Bernstein operators with Jacobi weight functions \(w(x)=x^a(1-x)^b\) \((0<a, b<1)\). In particular, by using the weighted modulus of smoothness \(\omega^2_{\varphi^\lambda}(f,t)_w\), they obtain approximation theorems for the Bernstein operator \(B_n(f,x)\) that are an extension of the results proposed by \textit{D. X. Zhou} in [Acta Math. Sinica 35, 331--338 (1992; Zbl 0785.41014)] to continuous functions in \([0,1]\).
