    The Approximation of Logarithmic Function by q-bernstein Polynomials in the Case q > 1
    (Springer, 2007) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    Since in the case q > 1, q-Bernstein polynomials are not positive linear operators on C[ 0, 1], the study of their approximation properties is essentially more difficult than that for 0 < q < 1. Despite the intensive research conducted in the area lately, the problem of describing the class of functions in C[ 0, 1] uniformly approximated by their q-Bernstein polynomials ( q > 1) remains open. It is known that the approximation occurs for functions admitting an analytic continuation into a disc {z : | z| < R}, R > 1. For functions without such an assumption, no general results on approximation are available. In this paper, it is shown that the function f ( x) = ln( x + a), a > 0, is uniformly approximated by its q-Bernstein polynomials ( q > 1) on the interval [ 0, 1] if and only if a >= 1.

    On the q-bernstein Polynomials of the Logarithmic Function in the Case q > 1
    (Walter de Gruyter Gmbh, 2016) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The q-Bernstein basis used to construct the q-Bernstein polynomials is an extension of the Bernstein basis related to the q-binomial probability distribution. This distribution plays a profound role in the q-boson operator calculus. In the case q > 1, q-Bernstein basic polynomials on [0, 1] combine the fast increase in magnitude with sign oscillations. This seriously complicates the study of q-Bernstein polynomials in the case of q > 1. The aim of this paper is to present new results related to the q-Bernstein polynomials B-n,B- q of discontinuous functions in the case q > 1. The behavior of polynomials B-n,B- q(f; x) for functions f possessing a logarithmic singularity at 0 has been examined. (C) 2016 Mathematical Institute Slovak Academy of Sciences

    The Convergence of q-bernstein Polynomials (0 < q < 1) in the Complex Plane
    (Wiley-v C H verlag Gmbh, 2009) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The paper focuses at the estimates for the rate of convergence of the q-Bernstein polynomials (0 < q < 1) in the complex plane. In particular, a generalization of previously known results on the possibility of analytic continuation of the limit function and an elaboration of the theorem by Wang and Meng is presented.

    Weak Uncorrelatedness of Random Variables
    (Springer, 2006) Ostrovska, S
    New measures of independence for n random variables, based on their moments, are studied. A scale of degrees of independence for random variables which starts with uncorrelatedness (for n = 2) and finishes at independence is constructed. The scale provides a countable linearly ordered set of measures of independence.

    ON THE IMAGES OF ENTIRE FUNCTIONS UNDER THE LIMIT q-BERNSTEIN OPERATOR
    (indian Nat Sci Acad, 2017) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The limit q-Bernstein operator B-q comes out naturally as the limit for the sequence of q-Bernstein operators in the case 0 < q < 1 : Alternatively, it can be viewed as a modification of the Szasz-Mirakyan operator related to the Euler distribution. In this paper, a necessary and sufficient condition for a function g to be an image of an entire function under B-q is presented.

    Sets of Random Variables With a Given Uncorrelation Structure
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2001) Ostrovska, S
    Let xi (1),...,xi (n) be random variables having finite expectations. Denote i(k) := # {(j(1),...,j(k)): 1 less than or equal to j(1) < ... < j(k) less than or equal to n and E (l=1)pi (k) xi (fi) = (l=1)pi (k) E xi (h)}, k = 2,...,n. The finite sequence (i(2),...,i(n)) is called the uncorrelation structure of xi (1),...,xi (n). It is proved that for any given sequence of nonnegative integers (i(2),...,i(n)) satisfying 0 less than or equal to i(k) less than or equal to ((n)(k))and any given nondegenerate probability distributions P-1,...,P-n there exist random variables eta (1),...,eta (n) with respective distributions P-1,...,P-n such that (i(2),...,i(n)) is their uncorrelation structure.

    On the Improvement of Analytic Properties Under the Limit Q-Bernstein Operator
    (Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2006) Ostrovska, S
    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.

    The Approximation of Power Function by the q-bernstein Polynomials in the Case q > 1
    (Element, 2008) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    Since for q > 1. q-Bernstein polynomials are not positive linear operators on C[0, 1] the investigation of their convergence properties turns out to be much more difficult than that in the case 0 < q < 1. It is known that, in the case q > 1. the q-Bernstein polynomials approximate the entire functions and, in particular, polynomials uniformly on any compact set in C. In this paper. the possibility of the approximation for the function (z + a)(alpha), a >= 0. with a non-integer alpha > -1 is studied. It is proved that for a > 0, the function is uniformly approximated on any compact set in {z : vertical bar z vertical bar < a}, while on any Jordan arc in {z : vertical bar z vertical bar > a}. the uniform approximation is impossible, In the case a = 0(1) the results of the paper reveal the following interesting phenomenon: the power function z(alpha), alpha > 0: is approximated by its, q-Bernstein polynomials either on any (when alpha is an element of N) or no (when alpha is not an element of N) Jordan arc in C.

    The Approximation by q-bernstein Polynomials in the Case q ↓ 1
    (Springer Basel Ag, 2006) Ostrovska, S
    Let B-n (f, q; x), n = 1, 2, ... , 0 < q < infinity, be the q-Bernstein polynomials of a function f, B-n (f, 1; x) being the classical Bernstein polynomials. It is proved that, in general, {B-n (f, q(n); x)} with q(n) down arrow 1 is not an approximating sequence for f is an element of C[0, 1], in contrast to the standard case q(n) up arrow 1. At the same time, there exists a sequence 0 < delta(n) down arrow 0 such that the condition 1 <= q(n) <= delta(n) implies the approximation of f by {B-n(f, qn; x)} for all f is an element of C[0, 1].
