On the preservation of log convexity and log concavity under some classical Bernstein-type operators

AbstractThis paper analyzes the preservation of both the log convexity and the log concavity under certain Bernstein-type operators. Some results are provided for the Bernstein, Szász, Baskakov, the gamma-type and the Weierstrass operators. Probabilistic methods support the proofs of these results

Asymptotic and Non-asymptotic Results in the Approximation by Bernstein Polynomials

This paper deals with the approximation of functions by the classical Bernstein polynomials in terms of the Ditzian–Totik modulus of smoothness. Asymptotic and non-asymptotic results are respectively stated for continuous and twice continuously differentiable functions. By using a probabilistic approach, known results are either completed or strengthened
