Simultaneous approximation for the Phillips-Bézier operators.
Given a polyhedral convex function g: ℝⁿ → ℝ ∪ +∞, it is always possible to construct a family which converges pointwise to g and such that each gₜ: ℝⁿ → ℝ is convex and infinitely often differentiable. The construction of such a family involves the concept of cumulant transformation and a standard homogenization procedure.
In the present paper we introduce and investigate weighted statistical approximation properties of a q-analogue of the Baskakov and Baskakov-Kantorovich operators. By using a weighted modulus of smoothness, we give some direct estimations for error in the case 0 < q < 1.
