The continuity in q of the Lupaş q-analogues of the Bernstein operators

The Lupas q-analogue Rn,q of the Bernstein operator is the first known q-version of the Bernstein polynomials. It had been proposed by A. Lupas in 1987, but gained the popularity only 20 years later, when q-analogues of classical operators pertinent to the approximation theory became an area of intensive research. In this work, the continuity of operators Rn,q with respect to parameter q in the strong operator topology and in the uniform operator topology has been investigated. The cases when n is fixed and n -> infinity have been considered. (c) 2022 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Automated summary

The Lupas q-analogue Rn,q, the first q-version of the Bernstein polynomials, was originally proposed by A. Lupas in 1987 but gained popularity 20 years later when q-analogues of classical operators in approximation theory became a focus of intensive research. This work investigates the continuity of operators Rn,q with respect to the parameter q in both the strong operator topology and the uniform operator topology, considering both fixed and infinite n.
