Approximation by the \(q\)-Szász-Mirakjan operators (Q1938294)

Summary: This paper deals with approximating properties of the \(q\)-generalization of the Szász-Mirakjan operators in the case \(q > 1\). Quantitative estimates of the convergence in the polynomial-weighted spaces and the Voronovskaja's theorem are given. In particular, it is proved that the rate of approximation by the \(q\)-Szász-Mirakjan operators \((q > 1)\) is of order \(q^{-n}\) versus \(1/n\) for the classical Szász-Mirakjan operators.
