Introduction In this section, we recall some notions and operators which we will use in this article. Let N be the set of positive integers and N0 = N ∪ {0}. For m ∈ N, let Bm : C([0, 1]) → C([0, 1]) be Bernstein operators, defined for any function f ∈ C([0, 1]) by m X k (1.1) (Bm f )(x) = pm,k (x)f , m k=0 where pm,k (x) are the fundamental polynomials of Bernstein, defined as follows m k (1.2) pm,k (x) = x (1 − x)m−k , k for any x ∈ [0, 1] and any k ∈ {0, 1, . . . , m} (see [5] or [24]). For the following construction, see [15]. Define the natural number m0 by ( max(1, −[β]), if β ∈ R − Z; (1.3) m0 = max(1, 1 − β), if β ∈ Z, where [x], {x} denote the integer and fractional parts respectively of a real number x. For the real number β, we have that (1.4) Ovidiu T. Pop and Mircea D.

For the real numbers α, β, α ≥ 0, we note ( 1, if (1.6) µ(α,β) = 1 + α−β , if γβ α ≤ β; α > β. For the real numbers α and β, α ≥ 0, we have that 1 ≤ µ(α,β) and (1.7) 0≤ k+α ≤ µ(α,β) m+β Linear Positive Operators Ovidiu T. Pop and Mircea D. Fărcaş vol. 10, iss. 1, art. 30, 2009 for any natural number m, m ≥ m0 and for any k ∈ {0, 1, . . . , m}. For the real numbers α and β, α ≥ 0, m0 and µ(α,β) defined by (1.3) – (1.6), (α,β) (α,β) let the operators P : C [0, µ ] → C [0, 1] , defined for any function f ∈ m (α,β) ] by C [0, µ m X k+α (α,β) (1.8) Pm f (x) = pm,k (x)f , m + β k=0 for any natural number m, m ≥ m0 and for any x ∈ [0, 1]. These operators are called Stancu operators, and were introduced and studied in 1969 by D.D. Stancu in the paper [23]. In [23], the domain of definition of Stancu’s operators is C([0, 1]) and the numbers α and β verify the condition 0 ≤ α ≤ β. In 1980, G. Bleimann, P. L. Butzer and L. Hahn introduced in [4] a sequence of linear positive operators (Lm )m≥1 , Lm : CB ([0, ∞)) → CB ([0, ∞)), defined for any function f ∈ CB ([0, ∞)) by m X 1 m k k (1.9) (Lm f )(x) = x f , (1 + x)m k=0 k m+1−k Title Page Contents JJ II J I Page 4 of 18 Go Back Full Screen Close for any x ∈ [0, ∞) and any m ∈ N, where CB ([0, ∞)) = {f | f : [0, ∞) → R, f is bounded and continuous on [0, ∞)}. For m ∈ N, consider the operators Sm : C2 ([0, ∞)) → C ([0, ∞)) defined for any function f ∈ C2 ([0, ∞)) by ∞ X (mx)k k −mx (1.10) (Sm f ) (x) = e f , k! m k=0 for any x ∈ [0, ∞), where f (x) C2 ([0, ∞)) = f ∈ C ([0, ∞)) : lim exists and is finite . x→∞ 1 + x2 The operators (Sm )m≥1 are called Mirakjan-Favard-Szász operators and were introduced in 1941 by G. M. Mirakjan in [12]. They were intensively studied by J. Favard in 1944 in [8] and O. Szász in 1950 in [25]. For m ∈ N, the operator Vm : C2 ([0, ∞)) → C ([0, ∞)) is defined for any function f ∈ C2 ([0, ∞)) by k ∞ X k m+k−1 x −m f , (1.11) (Vm f ) (x) = (1 + x) 1+x m k k=0 for any x ∈ [0, ∞). The operators (Vm )m≥1 are named Baskakov operators and they were introduced in 1957 by V. A. Baskakov in [2]. W. Meyer-König and K. Zeller have introduced in [11] a sequence of linear and positive operators. After a slight adjustment, given by E.W. Cheney and A. Sharma Linear Positive Operators Ovidiu T. Pop and Mircea D. Fărcaş vol. 10, iss. 1, art. 30, 2009 Title Page Contents JJ II J I Page 5 of 18 Go Back Full Screen Close in [6], these operators take the form Zm : B ([0, 1)) → C ([0, 1)), defined for any function f ∈ B ([0, 1)) by ∞ X m+k k m+1 k (1 − x) x f (1.12) (Zm f ) (x) = , k m+k k=0 for any m ∈ N and for any x ∈ [0, 1). These operators are called the Meyer-König and Zeller operators. Observe that Zm : C ([0, 1]) → C ([0, 1]), m ∈ N. In [10], M. Ismail and C.P. May consider the operators (Rm )m≥1 . For m ∈ N, Rm : C([0, ∞)) → C([0, ∞)) is defined for any function f ∈ C([0, ∞)) by k ∞ k−1 kx mx X m(m + k) x k − 1+x − 1+x f e (1.13) (Rm f )(x) = e m k! 1+x k=0 for any x ∈ [0, ∞). We consider I ⊂ R, I an interval and we shall use the following function sets: E(I), F (I) which are subsets of the set of real functions defined on I, B(I) = f | f : I → R, f bounded on I , C(I) = f | f : I → R, f continuous on I and CB (I) = B(I) ∩ C(I). If f ∈ B(I), then the first order modulus of smoothness of f is the function ω(f ; ·) : [0, ∞) → R defined for any δ ≥ 0 by (1.14) ω(f ; δ) = sup {|f (x0 ) − f (x00 )| : x0 , x00 ∈ I, |x0 − x00 | ≤ δ} .

Preliminaries For the following construction and result see [16] and [18], where pm = m for any m ∈ N or pm = ∞ for any m ∈ N. Let I, J ⊂ [0, ∞) be intervals with I ∩ J 6= ∅. For any m ∈ N and k ∈ {0, 1, ..., pm } ∩ N0 consider the nodes xm,k ∈ I and the functions ϕm,k : J → R with the property that ϕm,k (x) ≥ 0 for any x ∈ J. Let E(I) and F (J) be subsets of the set of real functions defined on I, respectively J so that the sum pm X ϕm,k (x)f (xm,k ) Linear Positive Operators Ovidiu T. Pop and Mircea D. Fărcaş vol. 10, iss. 1, art. 30, 2009 k=0 exists for any f ∈ E(I), x ∈ J and m ∈ N. For any x ∈ I consider the functions ψx : I → R, ψx (t) = t − x and ei : I → R, ei (t) = ti for any t ∈ I, i ∈ {0, 1, 2}. In the following, we suppose that for any x ∈ I we have ψx ∈ E(I) and ei ∈ E(I), i ∈ {0, 1, 2}. For m ∈ N, let the given operator Lm : E(I) → F (J) defined by (2.1) (Lm f )(x) = pm X ϕm,k (x)f (xm,k ) Title Page Contents JJ II J I Page 7 of 18 k=0 with the property that the convergence (2.2) lim (Lm f )(x) = f (x) m→∞ is uniform on any compact K ⊂ I ∩ J, for any f ∈ E(I) ∩ C(I). Remark 1. From (2.2), for the operators (Lm )m≥1 we have that the following convergences (2.3) lim (Lm ei )(x) = ei (x), m→∞ Go Back Full Screen Close i ∈ {0, 1, 2} and lim (Lm ψx2 )(x) = 0 (2.4) m→∞ are uniform on any compact K ⊂ I ∩ J. Remark 2. From Remark 1 it results that for any compact K ⊂ I ∩ J the sequences (um (K))m≥1 , (vm (K))m≥1 , (wm (K))m≥1 depending on K exist, so that the convergences (2.5) lim um (K) = lim vm (K) = lim wm (K) = 0 m→∞ m→∞ m→∞ Linear Positive Operators Ovidiu T.

In the following, for m ∈ N and k ∈ {0, 1, . . . , pm } ∩ N0 we consider the nodes ym,k ∈ I so that (2.9) αm = sup |xm,k − ym,k | < ∞ k∈{0,1,...,pm }∩N0 for any m ∈ N and (2.10) lim αm = 0. m→∞ For m ∈ N and k ∈ {0, 1, . . . , pm } ∩ N0 we note that αm,k = xm,k − ym,k . JJ II J I Page 8 of 18 Go Back Full Screen Close Definition 2.1. For m ∈ N, define the operator Km : E(I) → F (J) by (2.11) (Km f )(x) = pm X ϕm,k (x)f (ym,k ), k=0 for any x ∈ I and any f ∈ E(I).

Taking Remark 1 and Remark 2 into account, it results that (3.1) holds. Theorem 3.2. If f ∈ E(I ∩ J) ∩ C(I ∩ J), then for any x ∈ K = [a, b] ⊂ I ∩ J and any m ∈ N, we have that (3.2) |(Km f )(x) − f (x)| ≤ |f (x)| |(Lm e0 (x)) − 1| + ((Lm e0 )(x) + 1)ω(f ; δm,x ) ≤ M um (K) + (2 + um (K))ω(f ; δm ), Linear Positive Operators Ovidiu T.

Proof. We apply the Shisha-Mond Theorem (see [22] or [24]) for the operator Km and taking the inequality from the proof of the Theorem 3.1 into account verified by (Km ψx2 )(x) and Remark 2, the inequality (3.2) follows. Corollary 3.3. If JJ II J I Page 11 of 18 Go Back pm X (3.3) ϕm,k (x) = 1 k=0 for any x ∈ J, then for any f ∈ E(I ∩ J) ∩ C(I ∩ J), any x ∈ K = [a, b] ⊂ I ∩ J and any m ∈ N we have that 0 |(Km f )(x) − f (x)| ≤ 2ω(f ; δm,x ) ≤ 2ω(f ; δm ) (3.4) 0 where δm = p 2 + 4bα . wm (K) + 2αm vm (K) + αm m Full Screen Close Proof. It results from Theorem 3.2, because (Lm e0 )(x) = 1, for any m ∈ N and x ∈ J, so um (K) = 0, for any m ∈ N. Remark 4. From the conditions of Theorem 3.2 we have that |(Km f )(x) − f (x)| ≤ M um (K) + (2 + um (K))ω(f ; δm ) and because lim δm = 0, it results that the convergence lim (Km f )(x) = f (x) is m→∞ m→∞ uniform on K. In the following, by particularisation of the sequence ym,k , m ∈ N, k ∈ {0, 1, . . . , pm } ∩N0 and applying Theorem 3.1 and Corollary 3.3, we can obtain a convergence and approximation theorem for the new operators.
