    q-bernstein Polynomials of the Cauchy Kernel
    (Elsevier Science inc, 2008) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    Due to the fact that 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) is still open. In this paper, the q-Bernstein polynomials B-n,B-q(f(a); z) of the Cauchy kernel f(a) = 1/(z - a), a is an element of C \ [0, 1] are found explicitly and their properties are investigated. In particular, it is proved that if q > 1, then polynomials B-n,B-q(f(a); z) converge to f(a) uniformly on any compact set K subset of {z : vertical bar z vertical bar < vertical bar a vertical bar}. This result is sharp in the following sense: on any set with an accumulation point in {z : vertical bar z vertical bar > vertical bar a vertical bar}, the sequence {B-n,B-q(f(a); z) is not even uniformly bounded.

    On the q-bernstein Polynomials of Piecewise Linear Functions in the Case q > 1
    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2013) Kaskaloglu, Kerem; Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The aim of this paper is to present new results related to the approximation of continuous functions by their q-Bernstein polynomials in the case q > 1. The first part of the paper is devoted to the behavior of the q-Bernstein polynomials of piecewise linear functions. This study naturally leads to the notion of truncated q-Bernstein polynomials introduced in the paper. The second part deals with the asymptotic estimates for the norms of the m-truncated q-Bernstein polynomials, in the case where both n and q vary. The results of the paper are illustrated by numerical examples. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    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.

    The q-versions of the Bernstein Operator: From Mere Analogies To Further Developments
    (Springer Basel Ag, 2016) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The article exhibits a review of results on two popular q-versions of the Bernstein polynomials, namely, the LupaAY q-analogue and the q-Bernstein polynomials. Their similarities and distinctions are discussed.

    On the Analyticity of Functions Approximated by Their q-bernstein Polynomials When q > 1
    (Elsevier Science inc, 2010) Ostrovskii, Iossif; Ostrovska, Sofiya
    Since in the case q > 1 the q-Bernstein polynomials B-n,B-q are not positive linear operators on C[0, 1], the investigation of their convergence properties for q > 1 turns out to be much harder than the one for 0 < q < 1. What is more, the fast increase of the norms parallel to B-n,B-q parallel to as n -> infinity, along with the sign oscillations of the q-Bernstein basic polynomials when q > 1, create a serious obstacle for the numerical experiments with the q-Bernstein polynomials. Despite the intensive research conducted in the area lately, the class of functions which are uniformly approximated by their q-Bernstein polynomials on [0, 1] is yet to be described. In this paper, we prove that if f : [0, 1] -> C is analytic at 0 and can be uniformly approximated by its q-Bernstein polynomials (q > 1) on [0, 1], then f admits an analytic continuation from [0, 1] into {z: vertical bar z vertical bar < 1}.

    The Approximation of All Continuous Functions on [0,1] by q-bernstein Polynomials in the Case q → 1+
    (Springer Basel Ag, 2008) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    Since for q > 1, the q-Bernstein polynomials B-n,B-q(f;.) are not positive linear operators on C[0, 1], their convergence properties are not similar to those in the case 0 < q = 1. It has been known that, in general, B-n,B-qn(f;.) does not approximate f is an element of C[0, 1] if q(n) -> 1(+), n ->infinity, unlike in the case q(n) -> 1(-). In this paper, it is shown that if 0 <= q(n) - 1 = o(n(-1)3(-n)), n -> infinity, then for any f is an element of C[0, 1], we have: B-n,B-qn(f; x) -> f(x) as n -> infinity, uniformly on [ 0,1].

    q-bernstein Polynomials and Their Iterates
    (Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2003) Ostrovska, S
    Let B-n (f,q;x), n = 1,2,... be q-Bernstein polynomials of a function f: [0, 1] --> C. The polynomials B-n(f, 1; x) are classical Bernstein polynomials. For q not equal 1 the properties of q-Bernstein polynomials differ essentially from those in the classical case. This paper deals with approximating properties of q-Bernstein polynomials in the case q>1 with respect to both n and q. Some estimates on the rate of convergence are given. In particular, it is proved that for a function f analytic in {z: \z\ < q + ε} the rate of convergence of {B-n(f, q; x)} to f (x) in the norm of C[0, 1] has the order q(-n) (versus 1/n for the classical Bernstein polynomials). Also iterates of q-Bernstein polynomials {B-n(jn) (f, q; x)}, where both n --> infinity and j(n) --> infinity, are studied. It is shown that for q is an element of (0, 1) the asymptotic behavior of such iterates is quite different from the classical case. In particular, the limit does not depend on the rate of j(n) --> infinity. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

    The q-bernstein Polynomials of the Cauchy Kernel With a Pole on [0,1] in the Case q > 1
    (Elsevier Science inc, 2013) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Ozban, Ahmet Yasar
    The problem to describe the Bernstein polynomials of unbounded functions goes back to Lorentz. The aim of this paper is to investigate the convergence properties of the q-Bernstein polynomials B-n,B-q(f; x) of the Cauchy kernel 1/x-alpha with a pole alpha is an element of [0, 1] for q > 1. The previously obtained results allow one to describe these properties when a pole is different from q(-m) for some m is an element of {0, 1, 2, ...}. In this context, the focus of the paper is on the behavior of polynomials B-n,B-q(f; x) for the functions of the form f(m)(x) = 1/(x - q(-m)), x not equal q(-m) and f(m)(q(-m)) = a, a is an element of R. Here, the problem is examined both theoretically and numerically in detail. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
