1 Introduction
In 1998, Mihesan [1] introduced the generalized Baskakov operators \(B_{n,a}^*\) defined as
where \(W_{n,k}^{a}(x)=e^{\frac{-ax}{1+x}}\frac{p_{k}(n,a)}{k!}\frac{x^k}{(1+x)^{n+k}} , p_k(n,a)=\sum \nolimits _{i=0}^{k}{k\atopwithdelims ()i}(n)_ia^{k-i},\) and \((n)_0=1, (n)_i=n(n+1)\cdot \cdot \cdot (n+i-1),\) for \(i\ge 1.\) In Agrawal and Goyal [2], considered the Kantorovich modification of these operators for the function f defined on \(C_{\gamma }[0,\infty ):= \{f\in C[0,\infty ): |f(t)| \le M(1+t^{\gamma }), t\ge 0\) for some \(\gamma >0\}\) as follows:
and discussed some direct results in weighted approximation, simultaneous approximation and statistical convergence for these operators. They also obtained the rate of convergence for functions having a derivative equivalent with a function of bounded variation. As a special case, for \(a=0,\) these operators include the well known Baskakov–Kantorovich operators (see e.g. [3]).
Bojanic and Cheng [4, 5] estimated the rate of convergence with derivatives of bounded variation for Bernstein and Hermite–Fejer polynomials by using different methods. Guo [6] studied it for the Bernstein–Durrmeyer polynomials by using Berry Esseen theorem. Subsequently, due to the pivotal role of the Bèzier basis functions in computer aided design and related fields, the researchers started working on the approximation behaviour of the Bèzier variant of various sequences of linear positive operators. In Zeng and Chen [7], initiated the study of the rate of convergence for the Bèzier variant of Bernstein Durrmeyer operators. Zeng and Tao [8] also introduced the Bèzier type Baskakov–Durrmeyer operators and estimated the rate of convergence. They termed these operators as integral type Lupas–Bèzier operators. Abel and Gupta [9] introduced the Bèzier variant of the Baskakov operators and then Gupta [10] estimated the convergence of Bèzier type Baskakov–Kantorovich operators and studied the rate of convergence. Guo et al. [11] proved the direct, inverse and equivalence approximation theorems with unified Ditzian–Totik modulus \(\omega _{\phi ^\lambda }(f, t) (0\le \lambda \le 1).\) Several other Bèzier variants of summation–integral type operators were studied in [12–15] etc.
So, it is worthwhile to study the Bèzier variant of other sequences of operators. Furthermore, the recent work on different Bèzier type operators inspired us to investigate further in this direction.
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the Bèzier variant of the operators (1.1) and investigate a direct approximation theorem with the aid of the Ditzian–Totik modulus of smoothness and the rate of convergence for functions with derivatives of bounded variation.
2 Construction of operators
For \(\theta \ge 1,\) we now define the Bèzier variant of the operators (1.1) on \([0,\infty )\) as:
where \(F_{n,k,a}^{(\theta )}(x)= [J_{n,k}^a(x)]^{\theta }-[J_{n,k+1}^a(x)]^{\theta }\) and \(J_{n,k}^a(x)=\sum _{j=k}^\infty W_{n,j}^{a}(x),\) when \(k\le n\) and 0 otherwise.
Some important properties of \(J_{n,k}^a(x)\) are as follows:
-
\(J_{n,k}^a(x)-J_{n,k+1}^a(x)= W_{n,k}^a(x), k=0,1,2,3...;\)
-
\(J_{n,0}^a(x)>J_{n,1}^a(x)> J_{n,2}^a(x)>\cdots >J_{n,n}^a(x)>0, x\in [0,\infty ).\)
For every natural number \(k, J_{n,k}^a(x)\) increases strictly from 0 to 1 on \([0,\infty ).\)
The operators \(K_{n,\theta }^a(f;x)\) also admit the integral representation
where \(M_{n,\theta }^a(x,t):= (n+1)\sum \nolimits _{k=0}^{\infty }F_{n,k,a}^{(\theta )}(x)\chi _{n,k}(t),\) where \(\chi _{n,k}(t)\) is the characteristic function of the interval \(\bigg [\frac{k}{n+1}, \frac{k+1}{n+1}\bigg ]\) with respect to \([0,\infty ).\)
It is easily verified that for \(\theta =1,\) the operators (2.1) reduce to (1.1), i.e. \(K_{n,1}^a(f;x)=K_{n}^a(f;x).\)
3 Auxiliary results
Let \(C_B[0,\infty )\) denote the space of all bounded and continuous functions on \([0,\infty )\) endowed with the norm
Lemma 1
[2] For the rth order \((r\in \mathbb {N}\cup \{0\})\) moment of the operators (1.1), defined as \(T_{n,r}^a(x):= K_n^a(t^r;x),\) we have
where \(\upsilon _{n,j}^a(x)\) is the jth order moment of the operators \(B_{n,a}^*.\)
Consequently, \(T_{n,0}^a(x)=1, \,\, T_{n,1}^a(x)= \frac{1}{n+1}\bigg (nx+\frac{ax}{1+x} +\frac{1}{2}\bigg ),\)
\(T_{n,2}^a(x)=\dfrac{1}{(n+1)^2}\bigg (n^2x^2+n\bigg (x^2+2x+\dfrac{2ax^2}{1+x}\bigg )+\dfrac{a^2x^2}{(1+x)^2}+\dfrac{2ax}{1+x}+\dfrac{1}{3}\bigg ),\) and for each \(x\in (0,\infty )\) and \(r\in \mathbb {N}, T_{n,r}^a(x)=x^r+n^{-1} (p_r(x,a)+o(1)),\) where \(p_r(x,a)\) is a rational function of x depending on the parameters a and r.
Lemma 2
[2] For the rth order central moment of \(K_n^{a},\) defined as
we have
-
(i)
\(u_{n,0}^a(x)=1, u_{n,1}^a(x)=\frac{1}{n+1}\bigg (-x+\frac{ax}{1+x}+ \frac{1}{2}\bigg )\) and \(u_{n,2}^a(x)=\dfrac{1}{(n+1)^2}\bigg \{nx(x+1)-x(1-x) +\dfrac{ax}{1+x}\bigg (\dfrac{ax}{1+x}+2(1-x)\bigg )+\dfrac{1}{3}\bigg \};\)
-
(ii)
\(u_{n,r}^a(x)\) is a rational function of x depending on the parameters a and r;
-
(iii)
for each \(x\in (0,\infty ), u_{n,r}^a(x)=O\bigg (\frac{1}{n^{[\frac{r+1}{2}]}}\bigg ),\) as \(n\rightarrow \infty .\)
Remark 1
[2] From Lemma 2, for \(\lambda >1, x\in (0,\infty )\) and n sufficiently large, we have
Lemma 3
For \(f\in C_B[0,\infty ),\) \(\parallel K_n^a(f)\parallel \le \parallel f\parallel .\)
Proof
From (1.1) and Lemma 2, the proof of this lemma is immediate. Hence the details are omitted. \(\square \)
Lemma 4
Let \(f\in C_B[0,\infty ).\) Then, \(\parallel K_{n,\theta }^a(f)\parallel \le \theta \parallel f\parallel .\)
Proof
Using the well known inequality \(|a^\beta -b^\beta |\le \beta |a-b|\) with \(0\le a,b\le 1, \beta \ge 1\) and the definition of \(F_{n,k,a}^{(\theta )}(x),\) we have, for \(\theta \ge 1\)
Hence, from the definition of the operator \(K_{n,\theta }^a(f;x)\) and Lemma 3, we get
\(\square \)
4 Direct approximation theorem
In this section, first we recall the definitions of the Ditizian–Totik modulus of smoothness \(\omega _{\phi ^\tau }(f,t)\) and Peetre’s \(\mathcal K\)—functional [16]. Let \(\phi (x)=\sqrt{x(1+x)}\) and \(f\in C[0,\infty ).\) Here, we use moduli \(\omega _{\phi ^\tau }(f,t)\) which unify the classical modulus \(\omega (f,t), \tau =0\) and the Ditzian–Totik modulus \(\omega _{\phi }(f,t).\)
For \(0\le \tau \le 1,\) we define
and the \(\mathcal K\)—functional
where \(W_\tau =\{g: g\in AC_{loc} ; \parallel \phi ^\tau g^\prime \parallel <\infty \}\) and \(\parallel .\parallel \) is the uniform norm on \(C[0,\infty ).\) It is proved that [16], \(\omega _{\phi ^\tau }(f,t) \sim \mathcal K_{\phi ^\tau }(f,t),\) i.e. there exists a constant \(M>0\) such that
Lemma 5
For \(f\in W_\tau ,\phi (x)=\sqrt{x(1+x)}, 0\le \tau \le 1\) and \(t,x>0,\) we have
Proof
By applying Hölder’s inequality, we get
Now,
and
On using above estimates in (4.2) and then the inequality \(|a+b|^r\le |a|^r+|b|^r, 0\le r\le 1\), we obtain
\(\square \)
Lemma 6
For any \(s\ge 0\) and each \(x\in [0,\infty ),\) there holds the inequality
where C(s) is a constant dependent on s.
Proof
For \(x=0,\) the result holds from (1.1). For \(x\in (0,\infty ),\) using (3.1) we have
We first observe that
Thus, we get
On using the ratio test, we note that for each \(x>0,\) the series on the right hand side (4.4) is convergent. This proves the desired result. \(\square \)
Let \(L_B[0,\infty )\) denote the space of all bounded and Lebesgue integrable functions on \([0,\infty ).\)
Theorem 1
For \(f\in L_B[0,\infty ),\) we have
Proof
By the definition of \(\mathcal K_{\phi ^\tau }(f,t),\) for a fixed n, x and \(\tau ,\) we can choose \(g=g_{n,x,\tau }\) such that
Applying Lemma 3, we may write
Using the representation \(g(t)=g(x)+\int _{x}^{t}g^{\prime }(u)du\) and Lemma 5, we obtain
By using Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, (3.1) and Remark 1, we have
Similarly, from Lemma 6, we get
By combining (4.8)–(4.10), we get
Using (4.1), (4.6)–(4.7) and (4.11), we obtain the required relation (4.5). \(\square \)
5 Rate of convergence
Let \(f\in DBV_{\gamma }(0,\infty ),\) \(\gamma \ge 0,\) be the class of all functions defined on \((0,\infty ),\) having a derivative of bounded variation on every finite subinterval of \((0,\infty )\) and \(|f(t)|\le M t^{\gamma },\) \(\forall \,\,\ t>0.\)
We notice that the functions \(f\in DBV_{\gamma }(0,\infty )\) possess a representation
where g(t) is a function of bounded variation on each finite subinterval of \((0,\infty ).\)
Lemma 7
Let \(x\in (0,\infty ),\) then for \(\theta \ge 1,\lambda > 2\) and sufficiently large n, we have
-
(i)
\(\xi _{n,\theta }^a(x,y)=\int _{0}^{y}M_{n,\theta }^a(x,t)dt\le \dfrac{\theta \lambda }{n+1}\dfrac{\phi ^2 (x)}{(x-y)^{2}} \,,\,\,0\le y<x,\)
-
(ii)
\(1-\xi _{n,\theta }^a(x,z)=\int _{z}^{\infty }M_{n,\theta }^a(x,t)dt\le \) \(\dfrac{\theta \lambda }{n+1}\dfrac{\phi ^2 (x)}{ (z-x)^{2}},\) \(x<z<\infty .\)
Proof (i) From (3.1) and Remark 1, we get
The proof of (ii) is similar hence it is omitted.
Theorem 2
Let f \(\in DBV_\gamma (0,\infty ),\theta \ge 1\) and let \(\bigvee _{c}^{d}(f_x^{\prime })\) be the total variation of \(f_x^{\prime }\) on \([c,d] \subset (0,\infty ).\) Then, for every \(x\in (0,\infty )\) and sufficiently large n, we have
where \(\lambda > 2,\) and the auxiliary function \(f^{\prime }_{x}\) is defined by
Proof
From the definition of the function \(f^{\prime }_x(t),\) for any f \(\in DBV_\gamma (0,\infty ),\) we may write
where
From (2.2) and the fact that \(\int \nolimits _{0}^{\infty }M_{n,\theta }^a(x,t) dt=K_{n,\theta }^{a}(e_{0};x)=1\), we get
It is clear that
Thus, from (5.1), (5.2) and the Schwarz inequality for sufficiently large n, we have
\(\left| \displaystyle \int _{0}^{\infty }\bigg (\displaystyle \int _{x}^{t}\frac{1}{\theta +1}\bigg (f^{\prime }(x+)+\theta f^{\prime }(x-)\bigg ) du\bigg ) M_{n,\theta }^a(x,t)dt\right| \)
and by applying Cauchy–Schwarz inequality, we obtain
\(\left| \displaystyle \int _{0}^{\infty }\bigg (\displaystyle \int _{x}^{t}\frac{1}{2}\bigg (f^{\prime }(x+)-f^{\prime }(x-)\bigg ) \bigg (sgn(u-x)+\frac{\theta -1}{\theta +1}\bigg ) du\bigg ) M_{n,\theta }^a(x,t)dt\right| \)
By using Lemma 2, Remark 1 and considering (5.2)–(5.4) we obtain the following estimate
where
and
Now, let us estimate the terms \(U_{n,\theta }^a(f^{\prime }_x,x) \) and \(V_{n,\theta }^a(f^{\prime }_x,x).\) Since \( \int _{c}^{d}d_{t}\xi _{n,\theta }^a(x,t)\le 1,\) for all \([c,d]\subseteq (0,\infty ),\) using integration by parts and applying Lemma 7 with \(y=x-(x/\sqrt{n}),\) we have
By the substitution of \(u=x/(x-t),\) we obtain
Hence we reach the following result
Again, using integration by parts and applying Lemma 7 with \(z=x+(x/\sqrt{n}),\) we have
By the substitution of \(u=x/(t-x)\) as in the estimate of \(U_{n,\theta }^a(f_x^\prime ,x),\) we get
Now, combining (5.7)–(5.8), we obtain
By collecting the estimates (5.5), (5.6) and (5.9), we get the required result. This completes the proof of theorem. \(\square \)
