Abstract
In the present paper, we introduce a simple Stancu generalization ofq-analogue of well-known Durrmeyer operators. We first estimate moments ofq-Durrmeyer-Stancu operators. We also establish the rate of convergence as well as Voronovskaja type asymptotic formula forq-Durrmeyer-Stancu operators.
1 Introduction
In the last decade, the applications ofq-calculus in the approximation theory is one of the main areas of research. To approximate Lebesgue integrable functions on the interval [, ], Durrmeyer introduced the integral modification of the well-known Bernstein poly-nomials. In , Derriennic [] first studied these operators in detail. After theq-analogue of Bernstein polynomials by Phillips [], Gupta and Heping [] introducedq-Durrmeyer operators. Several other researchers have studied in this direction and obtained different approximation properties of many operators [, ]. In the present article, we propose the q-analogue of the Stancu generalization of Durrmeyer operators and study the conver-gence behavior. We have used notations ofq-calculus as given in [–].
We setpnk(q;x) = n
k

k( –x)n–k
q ,p∞k(q;x) = x

(–q)k[k]q!( –x)∞q .
Phillips [] proposed the followingq-Bernstein polynomials, which for each positive integernandf∈C[, ] are defined as
Bn,q(f;x) = n
k= f
[k]q
[n]q
pnk(q;x).
In , Derriennic [] introduced aq-analogue of the Durrmeyer operators and has es-tablished some approximation properties of theq-Durrmeyer operators. After couple of years, Gupta [] studiedq-analogue of Durrmeyer operators and discussed approxima-tion properties of the followingq-Durrmeyer operators: Forf ∈C[, ],
Dn,q(f;x) = [n+ ]q n
k=
q–kpnk(q;x)
f(t)pnk(q;qt)dqt
=
n
k=
Ank(f)pnk(q;x); ≤x≤. ()
Recently, Ibrahimet al.[, ] introduced Stancu generalization of certain operators and discussed its approximation properties. Motivated by such type operators, we introduce the Stancu type generalization of theq-Durrmeyer operators () for ≤α≤β, which is defined as follows:
Dαn,,βq(f;x) = [n+ ]q n
k=
q–kpnk(q;x)
f
[n]qt+α
[n]q+β
pnk(q;qt)dqt
=
n
k=
Aαnk,β(f)pnk(q;x); ≤x≤. ()
It can be easily verified that in caseq= ,α= andβ= , the operators defined in () reduce to the well-known Durrmeyer operators as defined in []. Throughout the present manuscript, the expressiongn(x)⇑g(x) means uniform convergence of a sequence{gn(x)}
tog(x).
The present note deals with the study ofq-Durrmeyer-Stancu operators{Dαn,,qβ(f)}for <
q< . First, we estimate the moments forq-Durrmeyer-Stancu operators. We also study the rate of convergence as well as asymptotic formula for these operators{Dαn,,qβ(f)}. We
establish a direct results in terms ofω(f,·).

and

Using [k+s]q= [s]q+qs[k]q, we get [k+ ]q[k+ ]q· · ·[k+m]q= m
s=([s]q+qs[k]q) = m
s=cs(m)[k]sq, wherecs(m) > ,s= , , , . . . ,mare constants independent ofk. Hence,
Dn,q(tm;x) =[n[+nm+]+]q!q! ms=cs(m) nk=[k]sqpnk(q;x) =[n[+nm+]+]q!q! ms=cs(m)[n]sqBn,q(ts;x).
Remark For allm∈N∪ {}, ≤α≤β, we have the following recursive relation for the images of the monomialstmunderDα,β
n,q(tm;x) in terms ofDn,q(tj;x);j= , , , . . . ,m, as

Sincecs(m) > fors= , , . . . ,mandBn,q(ts;x) is a polynomial of degree≤min(s,n) (see

3 Convergence ofq-Durrmeyer-Stancu operators
Theorem Let qn∈(, ].Then the sequence{Dnα,,qβn(f)}convergence to f uniformly on[, ]
for each f ∈C[, ]if and only iflimn→∞qn= .
The proof of the above theorem follows along the lines of [, Theorem ], thus we omit the details.
Letq∈(, ) be fixed. We defineDα∞,,βq(f, ) =f() and forx∈(, )
Dα∞,,βq(f;x) = –q

Using () and (), it is easy to prove that
Dα∞,,βq(;x) = , Dα∞,,βq(t;x) = [n]q( +q(x– )) +α [n]q+β

.
Forf ∈C[, ],t> , we define the modulus of continuityω(f,t) as follows:ω(f,t) =
sup{|f(x) –f(y)|:|x–y| ≤t,x,y∈[, ]}. We shall show the following theorem.
Theorem Let <q< then for each f ∈C[, ]the sequence{Dnα,,βq(f;x)}converges to
Dα∞,,βq(f;x)uniformly on[, ].Furthermore, Dαn,,qβ(f) –Dα∞,,βq(f) ≤Cqα,βω(f,qn).
The proof of the above theorem follows along the lines of [, Theorem ], thus we omit the details.
Remark We may observe that, for f(x) = x, we have Dα,β
n,q(f) –D∞,α,βq(f) qn
ω(f, √
qn), whereA(n)B(n) means thatA(n)B(n) andA(n)B(n), andA(n)B(n)
means that there exists a positive constantCindependent ofnsuch thatA(n)≤CB(n). Hence, the estimate of Theorem is sharp in the following sense: the sequenceqn in
Theorem cannot be replaced by any other sequence decreasing to zero more rapidly asn→ ∞.
Lemma [] Let L be a positive linear operator on C[, ],which reproduces linear func-tions.If L(t,x) >x∀x∈(, ),then L(f) =f if and only if f is linear.
Remark Since Dα∞,,βq(t,x) =
[n]q[(–q)(+q)+q(+q)(–q)x+q(–q)x+qx]+α[n]q(+q(x–))+α
[n]q+β > x
for <q< consequence of Lemma we have the following:
Theorem Let <q< be fixed and let f ∈C[, ].Then D∞,α,βq(f;x) =f(x)for all x∈[, ]
if and only if f is linear.
Remark Let <q< be fixed and letf∈C[, ]. Then the sequence{Dnαβ,q(f;x)}does not
approximatef(x) unlessfis linear. This is completely in contrast to the classical Bernstein polynomials, by which{Dn(f;x)}approximatesf(x) for anyf∈C[, ].
Theorem For any f ∈C[, ],{Dα∞,,βq(f)}converges to f uniformly on[, ]as q→–.
Next, we establish a Voronovskaja type asymptotic formula for the operatorsDαn,,qβn:
Theorem Let f be bounded and integrable on the interval[, ],second derivative of f
exists at a fixed point x∈[, ]and q=qn∈(, )such that qn→as n→ ∞,then
lim
n→∞[n]qn
Dα,β
n,qn(f;x) –f(x)
The proof of the above lemma follows along the lines of [, Theorem ]; thus, we omit the details.
