In functional analysis, a branch of mathematics, the Baskakov operators are generalizations of Bernstein polynomials, Szász–Mirakyan operators, and Lupas operators. They are defined by

where ( can be ), , and is a sequence of functions defined on that have the following properties for all :

  1. . Alternatively, has a Taylor series on .
  2. is completely monotone, i.e. .
  3. There is an integer such that whenever

They are named after V. A. Baskakov, who studied their convergence to bounded, continuous functions.[1]

Basic results

The Baskakov operators are linear and positive.[2]
