Preface
Approximation of functions by positive linear operators is an important branch of the approximation theory. To increase the order of approximation a useful tool is the method of linear combinations of positive linear operators (p.l.o.). The most known example of p.l.o. is the famous Bernstein operators introduced by S. Bernstein [26, 27], which for f 2 CŒ0; 1 is given by Bn .f ; x/ D
n X kD0
pn;k .x/f .k=n/;
! n k pn;k .x/ D x .1 x/nk : k
In 1932 Elena Voronovskaja [193]—a doctoral student of S. Bernstein—proved that if f is bounded on Œ0; 1, differentiable in some neighbourhood of x and has second derivative f 00 for some x 2 Œ0; 1 then lim nŒBn .f ; x/ f .x/ D
