    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.

    Qualitative results on the convergence of the q-Bernstein polynomials
    (North Univ Baia Mare, 2015) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Turan, Mehmet
    Despite many common features, the convergence properties of the Bernstein and the q-Bernstein polynomials are not alike. What is more, the cases 0 < q < 1 and q > 1 are not similar to each other in terms of convergence. In this work, new results demonstrating the striking differences which may occur in those convergence properties are 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.

    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 Image of the Limit q-bernstein Operator
    (Wiley, 2009) Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The limit q-Bernstein operator B-q emerges naturally as an analogue to the Szasz-Mirakyan operator related to the Euler distribution. Alternatively, B-q comes out as a limit for a sequence of q-Bernstein polynomials in the case 0

    The Norm Estimates for The q-bernstein Operator in The Case q > 1
    (Amer Mathematical Soc, 2010) Wang, Heping; Ostrovska, Sofiya
    The q-Bernstein basis with 0 < q < 1 emerges as an extension of the Bernstein basis corresponding to a stochastic process generalizing Bernoulli trials forming a totally positive system on [0, 1]. In the case q > 1, the behavior of the q-Bernstein basic polynomials on [0, 1] combines 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 norm estimates in C[0, 1] for the q-Bernstein basic polynomials and the q-Bernstein operator B-n,B-q in the case q > 1. While for 0 < q <= 1, parallel to B-n,B-q parallel to = 1 for all n is an element of N, in the case q > 1, the norm parallel to B-n,B-q parallel to increases rather rapidly as n -> infinity. We prove here that parallel to B-n,B-q parallel to similar to C(q)q(n(n-1)/2)/n, n -> infinity with C-q = 2 (q(-2); q(-2))(infinity)/e. Such a fast growth of norms provides an explanation for the unpredictable behavior of q-Bernstein polynomials (q > 1) with respect to convergence.

    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].

    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.

    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}.

    (Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2011) Ostrovska, Sofiya; Ozban, Ahmet Yasar
    The aim of this paper is to present norm estimates in C [0, 1] for the q-Bernstein basic polynomials and the q-Bernstein operators B-n,B-q in the case q > 1. While for 0 < q <= 1, vertical bar vertical bar B-n,B-q vertical bar vertical bar = 1 for all n is an element of N. in the case q > 1, the norm vertical bar vertical bar B-n,B-q vertical bar vertical bar increases rather rapidly as q -> +infinity. In this study, it is proved that vertical bar vertical bar B-n,B-q vertical bar vertical bar similar to C(n)q(n(n-1)/2), q -> +infinity with C-n = 2/n (1- 1/n)(n-1). Moreover, it is shown that vertical bar vertical bar B-n,B-q vertical bar vertical bar similar to 2q(n(n-1)/2) /ne as n -> infinity, q -> +infinity. The results of the paper are illustrated by numerical examples. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
