Degree of approximation by a new sequence of linear operators (Q2755640)

For functions \(f\in C_\alpha [0,\infty): =\{f\in C[0,\infty): |f(t)\leq M(1+t)^\alpha\) for some \(M>0\), \(\alpha>0\}\), the authors consider the degree of approximation by a linear combination of the following positive linear operators NEWLINE\[NEWLINEM_n(f,x)=(n-1)\sum^\infty_{k=1} p_{n,k}(x) \int^\infty_0 p_{n,k-1}(t) f(t)dt+(1+x)^{-n}f(0),NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(p_{n,k}(x)={n+k-1 \choose k}x^k(1+x)^{-(n+k)}, \;x\in[0,\infty)\). A Voronowskaja-type asymptotic result and an error estimate in terms of higher-order modulus of continuity are obtained.
