K. G UPTA 1. I NTRODUCTION For f ∈ Cγ [0, ∞) ≡ {f ∈ C[0, ∞) : |f (t)| ≤ M tγ for some M > 0, γ > 0} we consider a certain type of Baskakov-Durrmeyer operator as Z ∞ ∞ X (1.1) Bn (f (t), x) = pn,k (x) bn,k (t)f (t)dt + (1 + x)−n f (0) 0 Zk=1∞ = Wn (x, t)f (t)dt 0 where n+k−1 xk pn,k (x) = , k (1 + x)n+k tk−1 1 · bn,k (t) = B(n + 1, k) (1 + t)n+k+1 and Wn (x, t) = ∞ X pn,k (x)bn,k (t) + (1 + x)−n δ(t), k=1 δ(t) being the Dirac delta function. The norm- || · ||γ on the class Cγ [0, ∞) is defined as ||f ||γ = sup |f (t)|t−γ . 0≤t<∞ The operators defined by (1.1) are the integral modification of the well known Baskakov operators with weight functions of some Beta basis functions. Very recently Finta [2] also studied some other approximation properties of these operators. The behavior of these operators is very similar to the operators recently introduced in [6], [9] and also studied in [8]. These operators reproduce not only the constant functions but also the linear functions, which is the interesting property of such operators. The other usual Durrmeyer type integral modification of the Baskakov operators [5] reproduce only the constant functions, so one can not apply the iterative combinations easily to improve the order of approximation for the usual Baskakov Durrmeyer operators. For recent work in this area we refer to [7]. In the present paper we study some direct results which include pointwise convergence, asymptotic formula, error estimation and inverse theorem in the simultaneous approximation for the unbounded functions of growth of order tγ . 2. BASIC R ESULTS In this section we mention certain lemmas which will be used in the sequel. Lemma 2.1 ([3]). For m ∈ N ∪ {0}, if the mth order moment be defined as m ∞ X k pn,k (x) Un,m (x) = −x , n k=0 then Un,0 (x) = 1, Un,1 (x) = 0 and (1) nUn,m+1 (x) = x(1 + x)(Un,m (x) + mUn,m−1 (x)). Consequently we have Un,m (x) = O n−[(m+1)/2] . J. Inequal. Pure and Appl.

Let the function Tn,m (x), m ∈ N ∪ {0}, be defined as Tn,m (x) = Bn (t − x)m x Z ∞ ∞ X = pn,k (x) bn,k (t)(t − x)m dt + (1 + x)−n (−x)m . 0 k=1 Then Tn,0 (x) = 1, Tn,1 = 0, Tn,2 (x) = 2x(1+x) and also there holds the recurrence relation n−1 (1) (n − m)Tn,m+1 (x) = x(1 + x) Tn,m (x) + 2mTn,m−1 (x) + m(1 + 2x)Tn,m (x). Proof. By definition, we have (1) Tn,m (x) = ∞ X (1) pn,k (x) ∞ Z bn,k (t)(t − x)m dt 0 k=1 −m ∞ X Z pn,k (x) ∞ bn,k (t)(t − x)m−1 dt 0 k=1 − n(1 + x)−n−1 (−x)m − m(1 + x)−n (−x)m−1 . Using the identities (1) x(1 + x)pn,k (x) = (k − nx)pn,k (x) and (1) t(1 + t)bn,k (t) = [(k − 1) − (n + 2)t]bn,k (t), we have (1) x(1 + x) Tn,m (x) + mTn,m−1 (x) Z ∞ ∞ X pn,k (x) (k − nx)bn,k (t)(t − x)m dt + n(1 + x)−n (−x)m+1 = = k=1 ∞ X k=1 0 Z pn,k (x) ∞ (k − 1) − (n + 2)t + (n + 2)(t − x) 0 + (1 + 2x) bn,k (t)(t − x)m dt + n(1 + x)−n (−x)m+1 Z ∞ ∞ X (1) t(1 + t)bn,k (t)(t − x)m dt = pn,k (x) k=1 0 + (n + 2)[Tn,m+1 (x) − (1 + x)−n (−x)m+1 ] + (1 + 2x)[Tn,m (x) − (1 + x)−n (−x)m ] + n(1 + x)−n (−x)m+1 = −(m + 1)(1 + 2x)[Tn,m (x) − (1 + x)−n (−x)m ] − (m + 2)[Tn,m+1 − (1 + x)−n (−x)m+1 ] − mx(1 + x)[Tn,m−1 (x) − (1 + x)−n (−x)m−1 ] + (n + 2)[Tn,m+1 − (1 + x)−n (−x)m+1 ] + (1 + 2x)[Tn,m (x) − (1 + x)−n (−x)m ] + n(1 + x)−n (−x)m+1 . Thus, we get (1) (x) + 2mTn,m−1 (x)] + m(1 + 2x)Tn,m (x). (n − m)Tn,m+1 (x) = x(1 + x)[Tn,m J. Inequal. Pure and Appl.

From the above recurrence relation, it is easily verified for all x ∈ [0, ∞) that Tn,m (x) = O n−[(m+1)/2] . Remark 2.3. It is easily verified from Lemma 2.1 that for each x ∈ (0, ∞) (n + i − 1)!(n − i)! i (n + i − 2)!(n − i)! i−1 Bn (ti , x) = x + i(i − 1) x + O(n−2 ). n!(n − 1)! n!(n − 1)! Corollary 2.4. Let δ be a positive number. Then for every γ > 0, x ∈ (0, ∞), there exists a constant M (s, x) independent of n and depending on s and x such that Z γ Wn (x, t)t dt ≤ M (s, x)n−s , s = 1, 2, 3, . . . |t−x|>δ C[a,b] Lemma 2.5. There exist the polynomials Qi,j,r (x) independent of n and k such that X {x(1 + x)}r Dr pn,k (x) = ni (k − nx)j Qi,j,r (x)pn,k (x), 2i+j≤r i,j≥0 where D ≡ d . dx By C0 , we denote the class of continuous functions on the interval (0, ∞) having a compact support and C0r is the class of r times continuously differentiable functions with C0r ⊂ C0 . The function f is said to belong to the generalized Zygmund class Liz(α, 1, a, b), if there exists a constant M such that ω2 (f, δ) ≤ M δ α , δ > 0, where ω2 (f, δ) denotes the modulus of continuity of 2nd order on the interval [a, b]. The class Liz(α, 1, a, b) is more commonly denoted by Lip∗ (α, a, b). Suppose G(r) = {g : g ∈ C0r+2 , supp g ⊂ [a0 , b0 ] where [a0 , b0 ] ⊂ (a, b)}. For r times continuously differentiable functions f with supp f ⊂ [a0 , b0 ] the Peetre’s K-functionals are defined as h n oi Kr (ξ, f ) = inf f (r) − g (r) 0 0 + ξ g (r) 0 0 + g (r+2) 0 0 , 0 < ξ ≤ 1. g∈G(r) C[a ,b ] C[a ,b ] C[a ,b ] For 0 < α < 2, C0r (α, 1, a, b) denotes the set of functions for which sup ξ −α/2 Kr (ξ, f, a, b) < C. 0<ξ≤1 Lemma 2.6. Let 0 < a0 < a00 < b00 < b0 < b < ∞ and f (r) ∈ C0 with supp f ⊂ [a00 , b00 ] and if f ∈ C0r (α, 1, a0 , b0 ), we have f (r) ∈ Liz(α, 1, a0 , b0 ) i.e. f (r) ∈ Lip∗ (α, a0 , b0 ) where Lip∗ (α, a0 , b0 ) denotes the Zygmund class satisfying Kr (δ, f ) ≤ Cδ α/2 . Proof. Let g ∈ G(r) , then for f ∈ C0r (α, 1, a0 , b0 ), we have 2 (r) 2 (r) 4δ f (x) ≤ 4δ (f − g (r) )(x) + 42δ g (r) (x) ≤ 42δ (f (r) − g (r) )C[a0 ,b0 ] + δ 2 g (r+2) C[a0 ,b0 ] ≤ 4M1 Kr (δ 2 , f ) ≤ M2 δ α .

Let f ∈ Cγ [0, ∞) and f (r) exists at a point x ∈ (0, ∞). Then we have Bn(r) (f, x) = f (r) (x) as n → ∞. Proof. By Taylor expansion of f , we have f (t) = r X f (i) (x) i=0 i! (t − x)i + ε(t, x)(t − x)r , where ε(t, x) → 0 as t → x. Hence Z ∞ (r) Bn (f, x) = Wn(r) (t, x)f (t)dt = 0 r X i=0 f (i) (x) i!

Since ε(t, x) → 0 as t → x for a given ε > 0 there exists a δ such that |ε(t, x)| < ε whenever 0 < |t − x| < δ. If α ≥ max{γ, r}, where α is any integer, then we can find a constant M3 > 0, |ε(t, x)(t − x)r | ≤ M3 |t − x|α , for |t − x| ≥ δ.

Theorem 3.2. Let f ∈ Cγ [0, ∞). If f (r+2) exists at a point x ∈ (0, ∞). Then lim n Bn(r) (f, x) − f (r) (x) n→∞ = r(r − 1)f (r) (x) + r(1 + 2x)f (r+1) (x) + x(1 + x)f (r+2) (x). J. Inequal.

Let 0 < α < 2, 0 < a < a0 < a00 < b00 < b0 < b < ∞. If f ∈ C0 with (r) supp f ⊂ [a00 , b00 ] and Bn (f, ·) − f (r) = O(n−α/2 ), then C[a,b] Kr (ξ, f ) = M5 n−α/2 + nξKr (n−1 , f ) . Consequently Kr (ξ, f ) ≤ M6 ξ α/2 , M6 > 0. Proof. It is sufficient to prove Kr (ξ, f ) = M7 {n−α/2 + nξKr (n−1 , f )}, for sufficiently large n. Because supp f ⊂ [a00 , b00 ] therefore by Theorem 3.2 there exists a function h(i) ∈ G(r) , i = r, r + 2, such that (r) Bn (f, •) − h(i) 0 0 ≤ M8 n−1 .

I NVERSE T HEOREM This section is devoted to the following inverse theorem in simultaneous approximation: Theorem 4.1. Let 0 < α < 2, 0 < a1 < a2 < b2 < b1 < ∞ and suppose f ∈ Cγ [0, ∞). Then in the following statements (i) ⇒ (ii) (r) (i) ||Bn (f, •)||C[a1 ,b1 ] = O(n−α/2 ), (ii) f (r) ∈ Lip∗ (α, a2 , b2 ), where Lip∗ (α, a2 , b2 ) denotes the Zygmund class satisfying ω2 (f, δ, a2 , b2 ) ≤ M δ α . Proof. Let us choose a0 , a00 , b0 , b00 in such a way that a1 < a0 < a00 < a2 < b2 < b00 < b0 < b1 . Also suppose g ∈ C0∞ with suppg ∈ [a00 , b00 ] and g(x) = 1 on the interval [a2 , b2 ]. For x ∈ [a0 , b0 ] d , we have with D ≡ dx Bn(r) (f g, x) − (f g)(r) (x) = Dr (Bn ((f g)(t) − (f g)(x)), x) = Dr (Bn (f (t)(g(t) − g(x)), x)) + Dr (Bn (g(x)(f (t) − f (x)), x)) =: J1 + J2 . J.

Combining the above estimates, we get (r) Bn (f g, •) − (f g)(r) 0 0 = O n− α2 . C[a ,b ] Thus by Lemma 2.5 and Lemma 2.6, we have (f g)(r) ∈ Lip∗ (α, a0 , b0 ) also g(x) = 1 on the interval [a2 , b2 ], it proves that f (r) ∈ Lip∗ (α, a2 , b2 ). This completes the validity of the implication (i) ⇒ (ii) for the case 0 < α ≤ 1. To prove the result for 1 < α < 2 for any interval [a∗ , b∗ ] ⊂ (a1 , b1 ), let a∗2 , b∗2 be such that (a2 , b2 ) ⊂ (a∗2 , b∗2 ) and (a∗2 , b∗2 ) ⊂ (a∗1 , b∗1 ). Letting δ > 0 we shall prove the assertion α < 2. From the previous case it implies that f (r) exists and belongs to Lip(1 − δ, a∗1 , b∗1 ).
