    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

    Functions Whose Smoothness Is Not Improved Under the Limit q-bernstein Operator
    (Springer, 2012) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The limit q-Bernstein operator B-q emerges naturally as a modification of the Szasz-Mirakyan operator related to the Euler probability distribution. At the same time, this operator serves as the limit for a sequence of the q-Bernstein polynomials with 0 < q < 1. Over the past years, the limit q-Bernstein operator has been studied widely from different perspectives. Its approximation, spectral, and functional-analytic properties, probabilistic interpretation, the behavior of iterates, and the impact on the analytic characteristics of functions have been examined. It has been proved that under a certain regularity condition, B-q improves the smoothness of a function which does not satisfy the Holder condition. The purpose of this paper is to exhibit 'exceptional' functions whose smoothness is not improved under the limit q-Bernstein operator. MSC: 26A15; 26A16; 41A36

    On the Powers of the Kummer Distribution
    (Academic Publication Council, 2017) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Turan, Mehmet; Mathematics
    The Kummer distribution is a probability distribution, whose density is given by f (x) = cx (alpha-1)(1 + delta x)(-gamma) e(-beta x), X > 0, where alpha, beta, delta > 0, gamma is an element of R and C is a normalizing constant. In this paper, the distributions of random variable X-P, p > 0, where X has the Kummer distribution, are considered with the conditions being IFR/DFR, some properties of moments depending on the parameters and the moment-(in) determinacy. In the case of moment-indeterminacy, exemplary Stieltjes classes are constructed.

    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.

    Complementability of Isometric Copies of L1 in Transportation Cost Spaces
    (Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2024) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Ostrovskii, Mikhail I.
    This work aims to establish new results pertaining to the structure of transportation cost spaces. Due to the fact that those spaces were studied and applied in various contexts, they have also become known under different names such as Arens-Eells spaces, Lipschitz-free spaces, and Wasserstein spaces. The main outcome of this paper states that if a metric space X is such that the transportation cost space on X contains an isometric copy of L1, then it contains a 1-complemented isometric copy of $1.

    Polynomial Logistic Distribution Associated With a Cubic Polynomial
    (Taylor & Francis inc, 2017) Aksoy, Umit; Ostrovska, Sofiya; Ozban, Ahmet Yasar
    Let P(x) be a polynomial monotone increasing on ( - , +). The probability distribution possessing the distribution function is called the polynomial logistic distribution with associated polynomial P. This has recently been introduced by Koutras etal., who have also demonstrated its importance for modeling financial data. In this article, the properties of the polynomial logistic distribution with an associated polynomial of degree 3 have been investigated in detail. An example of polynomial logistic distribution describing daily exchange rate fluctuations for the US dollar versus the Turkish lira is provided.

    A Survey of Results on the Limit q-bernstein Operator
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2013) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The limit q-Bernstein operator B-q emerges naturally as a modification of the Szasz-Mirakyan operator related to the Euler distribution, which is used in the q-boson theory to describe the energy distribution in a q-analogue of the coherent state. At the same time, this operator bears a significant role in the approximation theory as an exemplary model for the study of the convergence of the q-operators. Over the past years, the limit q-Bernstein operator has been studied widely from different perspectives. It has been shown that. is a positive shape-preserving linear operator on C[0, 1] with parallel to B-q parallel to = 1. Its approximation properties, probabilistic interpretation, the behavior of iterates, and the impact on the smoothness of a function have already been examined. In this paper, we present a review of the results on the limit q-Bernstein operator related to the approximation theory. A complete bibliography is supplied.

    An Elaboration of the Cai-Xu Result on (p, q)-integers
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2020) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The investigation of the (p, q)-Bernstein operators put forth the problem of finding the conditions when a sequence of (p, q)-integers tends to infinity. This is crucial for justifying the convergence results pertaining to the (p, q)-operators. Recently, Cai and Xu found a necessary and sufficient condition on sequences {p(n)} and {q(n)}, where 0 < q(n) < p(n) <= 1, to guarantee that a sequence of (p(n), q(n))-integers tends to infinity. This article presents an elaborated version of their result.

    Fedja’s Proof of Deepti’s Inequality
    (Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2018) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Turan, Mehmet
    The paper aims to present, in a systematic way, an elegant proof of Deepti’s inequality. Both the inequalityand various ideas concerning the issue were discussed on the Mathoverflow website by a number of users, but none haveappeared in the literature thus far. In this work, suggestions pertaining to users ‘Deepti’ and ‘fedja’ are traced, whencethe title. The results or the paper are new, and the proof is divided into a series of statements, many of which are ofinterest in themselves.
