The Favard-Szász-Mirakyan operator Mm defined on RX is given by ∞ k (mx)k f (Mn f )(x) = e−mx . (1.1) k! m k=0 Consider a bivariate function defined an I = [0, +∞) × [0, +∞). The parametric extensions for the operators (1.1) are given by (x Mm f ) (x, y) = e−mx ∞ k k (mx) f ,y , k! m (1.2) ∞ j j (ny) f x, . j! n j=0 (1.3) k=0 (y Mn f ) (x, y) = e−ny Since Mm is a positive linear operator, it follows that its parametric extensions x Mm , y Mn are also positive and linear operators. Key Words: Taylor series, Mirakyan operator, Voronovskaja theorem, parametric extension, modulus of smoothness Mathematical Reviews subject classification: 41A58, 41A45, 41A63 163 164 Ioana Taşcu and Anca Buie Proposition 1.1 The parametric extension x Mm , y Mn satisfy the relation x Mm · y Mn =y Mn · x Mm . Their product is the bidimensional operator Mm,n which, for any function f ∈ RI , gives the approximant ∞ ∞ k j k j (mx) (ny) f , Mm,n (f ) (x, y) = e−mx e−ny . (1.4) k! j! m n j=0 k=0 Properties of the bidimensional operator of Mirakyan were studied in [1], [2], [3], [4]. Next, we will present some of them. Theorem 1.1 The bidimensional operator of Favard-Szász-Mirakyan has the following properties: (i) It is linear and positive. (ii) Mm,n (e0,0 ) (x, y) = 1; Mm,n (e1,0 ) (x, y) = x; Mm,n (e0,1 ) (x, y) = y; x ; m y Mm,n (e0,2 ) (x, y) = y 2 + . m Mm,n (e2,0 ) (x, y) = x2 + (iii) If a > 0, b > 0 and f ∈ C ([0, a] × [0, b]), then the sequence {Mm,n (f )}(m,n)∈N ∗ ×N ∗ is uniformly convergent to f on [0, a] × [0, b]. (iv) If a > 0, b > 0 and f ∈ C ([0, a] × [0, b]), then we have the estimation a b , , |f (x, y) − Mm,n (f ) (x, y)| ≤ 4ω m n where by ω we denote the first modulus of smoothness. 2 Main results Lemma 2.1 If δ > 0 and a > 0, then lim me m→∞ −mx k −x|≥δ |m (mx) k! k 2 k − x = 0. m ON THE ORDER OF APPROXIMATION OF FUNCTIONS BY THE BIDIMENSIONAL OPERATORS FAVARD-SZÁSZ-MIRAKYAN Proof. By (1.4) we have the next inequality 2 (mx)k k m 4 me−mx − x ≤ 2 Mm,n (x − ·) ; x, y . k! m δ k −x|≥δ |m 165 (2.1) A simple computation yields x x2 x3 + x4 , + 7 + 6 m3 m2 m x2 x Mm,n φ4 (x, y) = + 3 + x3 . m2 m These equalities and (i), (ii) from Theorem 1.1. imply: 1 4 Mm,n (x − ·) ; x, y = 3 3mx2 + x . m By (2.1) and (2.2), we have 2 (mx)k k 3mx2 + x −mx −x ≤ me . k! m m2 δ 2 k −x|≥δ |m Mm,n φ3 (x, y) = (2.2) The proof of the lemma is complete. Theorem 2.1 Consider a > 0, b > 0, (x, y) ∈ [0, a] × [0, b] and f ∈ C ([0, a] × [0, b]). Assume that (i) the function f has the second partial derivatives; (ii) the function f has the mixt partial derivatives in (x, y). Then lim min {m, n} [Mm,n (f ) (x, y) − f (x, y)] ≤ m,n→∞ x ∂2f y ∂2f (x, y) + (x, y) . 2 ∂x2 2 ∂y 2 The equality holds when m = n. Proof. Using the corresponding Taylor series, we obtain ∂f 1 ∂f (x, y) + (t − y) (x, y) f (s, t) = f (x, y) + (s − x) 1! ∂x ∂y 2 1 ∂2f 2 ∂ f + (x, y) (x, y) + (s − x)(t − y) (s − x) 2 2! ∂x ∂x ∂y 2 ∂2f 2 ∂ f + (s − x) (t − y) (x, y) + (t − y) (x, y) ∂y∂x ∂y 2 2 + (s − x) µ1 (s − x) + (s − x) (t − y) µ2 (s − x, t − y) 2 + (t − y) µ3 (t − y) , (2.3) 166 Ioana Taşcu and Anca Buie where the mappings µ1 , µ2 , µ3 are bounded and lim µ1 (h) = 0, h→0 lim h1 ,h2 →0 µ2 (h1 , h2 ) = 0, lim µ3 (h) = 0 . h→0 k j k j (mx) (ny) In (2.3), we choose s = , t = and multiply by , we get m n k! j! ∂f (x, y) Mm,n ((· − x) ; x, y) ∂x ∂f 1 ∂2f 2 (x, y) Mm,n ((∗ − y) ; x, y) + + (x, y) M ; x, y (· − x) m,n ∂y 2 ∂x2 2 1 ∂ f + (x, y) Mm,n ((· − x) (∗ − y) ; x, y) 2 ∂x∂y 1 ∂2f (x, y) Mm,n ((· − x) (∗ − y) ; x, y) + 2 ∂y∂x 1 ∂2f 2 + (∗ − y) (x, y) M ; x, y + Rm,n f (x, y) , (2.4) m,n 2 ∂y 2 (Mm,n f ) (x, y) − f (x, y) = where 2 k k − x µ1 −x m m k=0 ∞ ∞ (mx)k (ny)j k j k j + e−mx e−ny −x − y µ2 − x, − y k! j! m n m n k=0 j=0 2 ∞ j j j (nx) + e−nx − x µ3 − x .

Since Mm,n ((· − x) ; x, y) = 0 Mm,n ((∗ − y) ; x, y) = 0 Mm,n ((· − x) (∗ − y) ; x, y) = 2 = Mm,n (· − x) ; x, y 2 Mm,n (∗ − y) ; x, y = 0 x m y , n the relation (2.4) is equivalent to the following Mm,n (f ) (x, y) − f (x, y) = x ∂2f y ∂ 2f (x, y) + (x, y) + Rm,n f (x, y). 2 2 2m ∂x 2n ∂y (2.6) ON THE ORDER OF APPROXIMATION OF FUNCTIONS BY THE BIDIMENSIONAL OPERATORS FAVARD-SZÁSZ-MIRAKYAN 167 Now, by multiplying (2.6) by min {m, n} , and crossing to limit with respect to m, n we obtain lim min {m, n} Mm,n (f ) (x, y) − f (x, y) ≤ m,n→∞ ≤ y ∂2f x ∂2f (x, y) + (x, y) + lim min {m, n} Rm,n f (x, y). 2 2 m,n→∞ 2 ∂x 2 ∂y We claim that (2.7) lim min {m, n} Rm,n f (x, y) = 0. m,n→∞ Indeed, let ε > 0. Since lim µ1 (h) = 0, there exists δ > 0 such that, for any h→0 h, with |h| < δ , we have |µ1 (h)| < ε. From lim µ3 (k) = 0, we obtain that k→0 there exist an δ > 0 such that, for any k with |k| < δ , we have µ3 (k) < ε. Considering δ = max {δ , δ }, for every h, k with |h| < δ and |k| < δ, we have |µ1 (h)| < ε and |µ3 (k)| < ε . Let us use the notations I1 I2 J1 J2 k k ∈ N; m − x < δ , k = k ∈ N; m − x ≥ δ , = j ∈ N ; nj − y < δ , = j ∈ N ; nj − y ≥ δ . = Since the maps µ1 , µ2 and µ3 are bounded, we can write 2 (mx)k k k Rm,n f (x, y) ≤ e−mx − x µ1 − x k! m m k∈I1 2 (mx)k k + (sup |µ1 |) e−mx − x + (sup |µ2 |) Mm,n (|· − x| |∗ − y| ; x, y) k! m k∈I2 2 2 (ny)j j (ny)j j j −nx −nx − x µ3 − y +(sup |µ3 |) e −x +e j! n n j! n j∈J1 j∈J2 (2.8) k j For k ∈ I1 and j ∈ J1 , we have µ1 − x < ε and µ3 − y < ε. m n 168 Ioana Taşcu and Anca Buie Moreover, Mm,n (|· − x| |∗ − y| ; x, y) = 0. Therefore (2.8) becomes 2 k −x m k∈I1 2 (mx)k k −mx −x + (sup |µ1 |) e k! m k∈I2 2 2 (ny)j j (ny)j j − x + (sup |µ3 |) e−nx −x + εe−nx j! n j! n j∈J1 j∈J2 2 (mx)k (mx)k k 2 −mx −mx + (sup |µ1 |) e −x ≤ εδ e k! k! m k∈I1 k∈I2 2 (ny)j (ny)j j + (sup |µ3 |) e−ny −y + εδ 2 e−ny j! j! n j∈I1 j∈I2 2 (mx)k k −x ≤ 2εδ 2 + (sup |µ1 |) e−mx k! m k∈I2 2 (ny)j j −y + (sup |µ3 |) e−ny . j! n (mx)k Rm,n f (x, y) ≤ εe−mx k! j∈I2 Multiplying the previous inequality with min {m, n}, we obtain min {m, n} Rm,n f (x, y) ≤ 2εδ 2 min {m, n} 2 (mx)k k + (sup |µ1 |) min {m, n} e−mx −x k! m k∈I2 2 (ny)j j −ny −y + (sup |µ3 |) min {m, n} e . j! n (2.9) j∈I2 But min {m, n} e−mx 2 (mx)k k − x ≤ me−mx k! m k∈I2 | mk −x|≥δ (mx) k! k 2 k −x m and min {m, n} e −ny 2 (ny)j j −y ≤ ne−ny j! n j∈I2 | j n −y |≥δ j (ny) j! j −y n 2 . ON THE ORDER OF APPROXIMATION OF FUNCTIONS BY THE BIDIMENSIONAL OPERATORS FAVARD-SZÁSZ-MIRAKYAN 169 Now, by using the Lemma 2.1, we obtain lim min {m, n} e −mx m,n→∞ | mk −x|≥δ and lim min {m, n} e−ny m,n→∞ | j n −y |≥δ (mx)k k! (ny)j j! 2 k −x =0 m j −y n 2 = 0. So, there exist m0 , n0 ∈ N such that for every m, n ∈ N, with m ≥ m0 and n ≥ n0 , we have (mx)k k 1 −mx −x <ε min {m, n} e k! m (sup |µ1 |) k −x|≥δ |m and min {m, n} e −ny | nj −y|≥δ (ny)j j! j −y n <ε 1 . (sup |µ3 |) Then, according to (2.13), we can conclude that there exist m0 , n0 ∈ N such that for every m, n ∈ N, with m ≥ m0 and n ≥ n0 , the next inequality holds min {m, n} Rm,n f (x, y) < 2ε δ 2 min {m, n} + 1 . (2.10) This is equivalent with lim min {m, n} Rm,n f (x, y) = 0. m,n→∞ References [1] Agratini, O., Aproximarea prin operatori liniari, Presa Universitară Clujeană, Cluj-Napoca, 2000.
