On the improvement of analytic properties under the limit q-Bernstein operator

Abstract

Let B-n(f, q; x), n = 1, 2,... be the q-Bernstein polynomials of a function f is an element of C[0, 1]. In the case 0 < q < 1, a sequence {B-n(f, q; x)} generates a positive linear operator B-infinity = B-infinity,B-q on C[0, 1], which is called the limit q-Bernstein operator In this paper, a connection between the smoothness of a function f and the analytic properties of its image under Boo is studied.
