Asymptotic Properties of Bernstein–Durrmeyer Operators

It is known that Szász–Durrmeyer operator is the limit, in an appropriate sense, of Bernstein–Durrmeyer operators. In this paper, we adopt a new technique that comes from the representation of operator semigroups to study the approximation issue as mentioned above. We provide some new results on approximating Szász–Durrmeyer operator by Bernstein–Durrmeyer operators. Our results improve the corresponding results of Adell and De La Cal (Comput Math Appl 30:1–14, 1995).
