Article Citation - WoS: 72Citation - Scopus: 75On the Lupas q-analogue of the Bernstein Operator(Rocky Mt Math Consortium, 2006) Ostrovska, SofiyaLet R-n(f,q;x) : C[0, 1] -> C[0, 1] be q-analogues of the Bernstein operators defined by Lupas in 1987. If q = 1, then R-n (f, 1; x) are classical Bernstein polynomials. For q not equal 1, the operators R-n (f, q; x) are rational functions rather than polynomials. The paper deals with convergence properties of the sequence {R-n (f, q; x)}. It is proved that {R-n (f, q(n); x)} converges uniformly to f(x) for any f(x) is an element of C[0, 1] if and only if q(n) -> 1. In the case q > 0, q not equal 1 being fixed the sequence I R. (f, q; x) I converges uniformly to f(x) is an element of C[0, 1] if and only if f(x) is linear.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 16q-bernstein Polynomials of the Cauchy Kernel(Elsevier Science inc, 2008) Ostrovska, SofiyaDue 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.

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.

However, one of the main determinants of human capital is health expenditures, where human capital is one of the driving forces of growth. Consequently, health expenditures affect growth through this link. MethodsIn the study, these findings have been attempted to be empirically tested. Along this axis, health expenditure per qualified worker was chosen as an indicator of health expenditure, and output per qualified worker was chosen as an indicator of economic growth. The variables were treated with the convergence hypothesis. Due to the non-linear nature of the variables, the convergence hypothesis was carried out with non-linear unit root tests. ResultsThe analysis of 22 OECD countries from 1976 to 2020 showed that health expenditure converged for all countries, and there was a significant degree of growth convergence (except for two countries). These findings show that health expenditure convergence has significantly contributed to growth convergence. DiscussionPolicymakers should consider the inclusiveness and effectiveness of health policies while making their economic policies, as health expenditure convergence can significantly impact growth convergence. Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms behind this relationship and identify specific health policies most effective in promoting economic growth.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 9Improved convergence criteria for Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel iterations(Elsevier Science inc, 2004) Özban, AY; MathematicsSome simple criteria for the convergence of the Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel and SOR iterations have been proposed in the work of Huang [ZAMM 76-1 (1996) 57-58]. In this study we present some modified forms of the criteria introduced in Huang's work. The new criteria also allow for the norms of the Jacobi iteration matrices to be greater than unity. Numerical examples are also given which show the effectiveness of the criteria. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc.

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).

These polynomials were introduced by G. M. Phillips in 1997. We study convergence properties of the sequence {B-n(f, q; x)}(n=1)(infinity). It is shown that in general these properties are essentially different from those in the classical case q = 1.

Unlike the situation when alpha is an element of (0, 1) \ {q(-j)} j is an element of N, in the case when alpha = q(-m), m is an element of N, the type of singularity has a decisive effect on the set where a function can be approximated. In the latter event, depending on the types of singularities, three classes of functions have been examined, and it has been found that the possibility of approximation varies considerably for these classes.
