Weighted approximation by analogues of Bernstein operators for rational functions (Q397048)

Let \(C_w=\{f\in C((0,1)):\lim _{x\rightarrow 0}(wf)(x)=\lim _{x\rightarrow 1}(wf)(x)=0\}\) and \(\| f\| _{C_w}:=\sup _{x\in (0,1)}(wf)(x)\), \(w(x)=x^\alpha(1-x)^\beta\), \(\alpha,\beta \geq 0\), \(\alpha +\beta >0\). \textit{V. S. Videnskii} [Izv. Akad. Nauk BSSR, Ser. Fiz.-Mat. Nauk 1979, No. 1, 35--41 (1979; Zbl 0399.41009)] introduced a generalization of Bernstein operators for approximation by rational functions. Weighted modifications of Videnskii operators are introduced and their convergence in the norm of \(C_w\) for the functions belonging to some Sobolev-type space is studied.
