Abstract:
This paper deals with Stancu type generalization ofq-analogue of Baskakov-Szasz operators introducing a new sequence of positiveq-integral operators. We show that it is a weighted approximation process in the polynomial space of continuous functions defined on[0,∞). An estimate for the rate of convergence and weighted approximation properties are also obtained for these operators.MSC:

Introduction
In approximation theory,q-calculus makes our research very interesting. In the year 1987, firstlyq-analogue of classical Bernstein polynomials was given by A. Lupas[11]. In 1997, the most importantq-analogue of the Bernstein polynomials was introduced by Phillips[13]. After that many researchers worked in this direction and proposed manyq-operators and motivated their different properties related to some special functions, number theory and convergence behaviour. Gupta et al. [6]established the generating functions of someq-basis functions. In the theory of approximation, the convergence is important. In this context we mention some results for the convergence ofq-discrete operators due to[2],[7]etc.
In the year 2012, Gupta-Kim-Lee[6]proposed theq-analogue of a new sequence of linear positive operators and modified the well known Baskakov-Szasz operators by Agrawal-Mohammad[1], which is given as
Dqn(f;x) = [n]q ∞ X
v=1 pqn,v(x)
Z q/(1−qn)
0
q−vsqn,v−1(t)f(t q−v)dqt+p q
n,0(x)f(0), (1)
where
pnq,v(x) =
n+v−1
v
qv(v−1)/2 xv (1+x)−q(n+v) snq,v(t) =Eq(−[n]qt)
([n]qt)v [v]q!
In caseq=1, we get the original Baskakov-Szasz operators. It is observed that the above operators reproduce con-stant as well as linear functions.
Now we discuss Stancu type generalization[15]of the aboveq-Baskakov-Szasz operators. Very recently some results on Szasz-Mirakyan- Stancu operators are obtained by Maheshwari-Garg[12]. The Stancu variant is based on two

where Baskakov operatorspnq,vand Szasz operatorssnq,vare defined as above.
The literature ofq-calculus is described in different branches of Mathematics and Physics. Recently theq-analogues of the Baskakov operators and their Kantorovich and Durrmeyer variants have been studied by Aral-Gupta[2],[3]
and Gupta-Radu[8]respectively. The history ofq-calculus and its use to obtain some results can be seen in Ernst[4]
and Kac-Cheung[9]. Some of the notations and concepts inq-calculus are recalled here. Hence for a real number
q∈(0, 1)andn∈N
(x;q)n= (1+x)nq =:(1+x)(1+q x)...(1+qn−1x), n=1, 2, ...
=: 1 n=0.
Theq-binomial coefficients are given by
n v
q
= [n]q!
[v]q![n−v]q!, 0≤v≤n.
Theq-derivative of a functionf that isDqf is given by
(Dqf)(x) =
f(x)−f(q x)
(1−q)x , x6=0
and(Dqf)(0) =f′(0)providedf′(0)exists.
Theq-Gamma integral is defined by Koornwinder[10]as
Γq(t) = Z 1−1q

where
Eq(x) = ∞ X

qn(n2−1) x

[n]q!; Γq(l+1) = [l]qΓq(l), Γq(1) =1.
Furthermore,q-Beta function defined by Solo-Kac[14]is
Bq(l,m) =K(A,l) Z ∞/A

(1+x)lq+mdqx,
whereK(x,l) =x1+1xl 1+1

q . AlsoK(x,l)is aq-constant, that is,K(q x,l) =K(x,l)and in case ofl to be
an integer, it is independent ofx. In particular for any integern∈N, we have
K(x,n) =qn(n2−1), K(x, 0) =1, B
q(l,m) =
Γq(l)Γq(m)
Γq(l+m)
.
For details onq-Beta functions, we refer the readers to Sole-Kac[14].
Now forf ∈C[0,∞),q>0 andn∈N Aral-Gupta[2]introducedq-Baskakov operators are defined as

Moment estimations
In this section, we give moments and higher order moments for operators(3)and(1). Also we estimate the corre-sponding moments for new operators(2). Also we give higher order moments.
Lemma 2.1.
For the operators(3), the following equalities hold:
Bn,q(1;x) =1, Bn,q(t;x) =x,
Bn,q(t2;x) =x2+ x [n]q
1+x q
.
Proves are along the lines of Aral-Gupta[2].
Lemma 2.2.
For the operators(1), the following equalities hold:
Dnq(1;x) =1, Dnq(t;x) =x,
Dnq(t2;x) =x2+ x [n]q
1+q+x q
.
Proves can be seen in Gupta et al.[6].
Lemma 2.3.
For q∈(0, 1)and x∈[0,∞),we have
Dqn((t−x)2;x) =x(x+q[2]q) q[n]q .
Lemma 2.4.
For q∈(0,∞),n∈N and0< α < β,the equalities hold
Mnq,α,β(1,x) =1, Mnq,α,β(t,x) =[n]qx+α [n]q+β ,
Mnq,α,β(t2,x) =
[n]q+q[n]2q
q([n]q+β)2x
2+(1+q+2α)[n]q ([n]q+β)2 x+
α [n]q+β

.
Proof. ObviouslyMnq,α,β(1,x) =1. Now we proceed as
Mnq,α,β(t,x) = [n]q ∞ X
v=1
pnq,v(x)
Zq/(1−qn)

Dnq(t;x) + α [n]q+βD
q n(1;x)

using Lemma2.2. In the similar way, we have
Mnq,α,β(t2,x) = [
n]q [n]q+β

Dnq(t2;x) + 2α[n]q ([n]q+β)2D

.
Lemma 2.5.
For0< α < βand0<q<1,the central moments for our operators(2)are
Tnq,m,α,β(x) =Mnq,α,β((t−x)m,x)
= [n]q ∞ X
v=1

Then we have the first three moments as
Tnq,0,α,β(x) =1 (4)
Tnq,1,α,β(x) = α−βx
[n]q+β (5)
Tnq,2,α,β(x) =

Proof. From Lemma2.2it is obvious thatTnq,0,α,β(x) =1. Further we get
Tnq,1,α,β(x) =Mnq,α,β((t−x),x) =Mnq,α,β(t,x)−x Mnq,α,β(1,x)
= α−βx [n]q+β,
Tnq,2,α,β(x) =Mnq,α,β((t−x)2,x)
=Mnq,α,β(t2,x)−2x Mnq,α,β(t,x) +x2Mnq,α,β(1,x)

Remark 2.1.
For 0< α < βand 0<q<1, it can be proved easily from above lemma that
Mnq,α,β((t−x)2,x)≤x(x+q[2]q) q([n]q+β) .
Higher Order MomentsNow we consider for higher order moments for the operators(2).

using Lemmas2.2and Lemma2.6. Rearranging the coefficients ofx,x2,x3,x4we get the required lemma.
Definition 2.1 (Peetre’sK-functional).
Let us consider the spaceCB[0,∞)of all the continuous and bounded functionsf that isf ∈CB[0,∞)and endowed
with the normkfk={|f(x)|:x∈[0,∞)}, then theK-functional
K2(f,δ) = inf
g∈W2 ∞
{kf −gk+δkg′′k},
whereδ >0 andW∞2 ={g ∈CB[0,∞):g′,g′′∈CB[0,∞)}. Also there exists an absolute constantC >0 such that K2(f,δ)≤Cω2(f,
p
δ), where
ω2(f,
p
δ) = sup 0<h<pδ
sup
x∈[0,∞)|
f(x+2h)−2f(x+h) +f(x)|
is the second order modulus of smoothness off ∈CB[0,∞).
Also, forf ∈CB[0,∞)a usual modulus of continuity is given by
ω(f,δ) = sup 0<h<δ
sup
x∈[0,∞)|
f(x+h)−f(x)|.
Definition 2.2 (Rate of convergence).
LetBx2[0,∞)be the set of all functions f ∈[0,∞)satisfying the condition|f(x)| ≤Mf(1+x2),Mf is a constant
depending onf. We denote the subspace of all continuos functions byCx2[0,∞)belonging toBx2[0,∞). Again, we
supposeCx∗2[0,∞)be the subspace of all the functionsf ∈Cx2[0,∞), for which limx→∞1f+(xx)2is finite. The norm on Cx∗2[0,∞)is defined askfkx2=supx→∞|f
(x)|
1+x2. We denote the usual modulus of continuity off on the closed interval
[0,a]fora>0, by
ωa(f,δ) = sup |t−x|≤δ
sup
x,t∈[0,a]|
f(t)−f(x)|.
Definition 2.3.
Here we define some classes of functions
If there exists some constantMf >0 corresponding to functionf, then we have
Cm[0,∞) =:
f ∈C[0,∞):|f(x)|<Mf(1+xm);kfkm:= sup x∈[0,∞)
|f(x)|

Cm∗[0,∞) =:

Direct estimates
In this section we give some direct theorems and asymptotic formula using our operators(2).
Theorem 3.1.
Let f ∈CB[0,∞)and0<q<1.Then for all x∈[0,∞)and n∈N,there exists an absolute constant C>0such that
|Mnq,α,β(f;x)−f(x)| ≤Cω2 f,
v u
tx(x+q[2]q q([n]q+β)
!
.
Proof. Letg∈W∞2 andx,t∈∈[0,∞), then by Taylor’s expansion
g(t) =g(x) + (t−x)g′(x) + Z t
x
(t−w)g′′(w)d w.
From Lemma2.5and Remark2.1
Mnq,α,β(g(t);x)−g(x) =g′(x)Mnq,α,β(t−x;x) +Mnq,α,β Z t
x
(t−w)g′′(w)d w;x
.
UsingRt
x(t−w)g′′(w)d w≤(t−x)
2kg′′k, we have
|Mnq,α,β(g(t);x)−g(x)|=Mnq,α,β(t−x;x)g′(x) +Mnq,α,β((t−x)2;x)kg′′k
≤x(x+q[2]q) q([n]q+β)kg
′′k.
Also from(2)
|Mnq,α,β(f;x)|= [n]q ∞ X
v=1

≤ kfk. Hence we can have
|Mnq,α,β(f(t);x)−f(x)| ≤ |Mnq,α,β(f −g;x)−(f −g)(x)|+|Mnq,α,β(g;x)−g(x)|
≤ kf −gk+x(x+q[2]q) q([n]q+β)kg
′′k.
Taking infimum overallg∈W∞2 and then from Peetre’sK-function, we get
|Mnq,α,β(f(t);x)−f(x)| ≤Cω2 f,
v u
tx(x+q[2]q q([n]q+β)

.
Hence the required theorem.
Theorem 3.2.
Let f ∈Cx2,q∈(0, 1)andω(a+1(f,δ))be its modulus of continuity on the finite interval[0,a+1]⊂[0,∞),∀a>0.Then for every n>2,we have
kMnq,α,β(f)−f)k ≤6Mfa(1+a
2)(a+2)
q([n]q+β) +2ω(f, v u
ta(a+q[2]q) q([n]q+β).
Proof. Forx∈[0,a]andt>a+1, ast−x>1, we have
|f(t)−f(x)| ≤Mf(2+x2+t2) ≤Mf(2+3x2+ (t−x)2)
≤6Mf(1+a2)(t−x)2. (7)
Forx∈[0,a]andt≤a+1, we have
|f(t)−f(x)| ≤ωa+1(f,|t−x|)≤
1+|t−x| δ
ωa+1(f,δ), δ >0 (8)
From(7)and(8), forx∈[0,a]andt≥0, we have
|f(t)−f(x)| ≤6Mf(1+a2)(t−x)2+
1+|t−x| δ
ωa+1(f,δ). (9)
Hence
|Mnq,α,β(f;x)−f(x)| ≤Mnq,α,β(|f(t)−f(x)|;x)
≤6Mf(1+a2)M q
n,α,β((t−x)2;x) +ωa+1(f,δ)

Therefor by using Schwarz inequality and Remark 1,
|Mnq,α,β(f;x)−f(x)| ≤6Mf(1+a

Takingδ= r

Theorem 3.3.
Let qn ∈(0, 1),then the sequence Mnqn,α,β(f)converges to f uniformly on[0,A],for each f ∈C2∗[0,∞)if and only if limn→∞qn=1.
Its proof is obvious as q,qn∈(0, 1).
Theorem 3.4.
If qn∈(0, 1),qn →1and qnn →1as n→ ∞for any f ∈C2∗[0,∞)such that f′,f′′∈C2∗[0,∞),the following equality
holds

n→∞[n]qn(M

′′(x).
Proof. Assume thatf,f′,f′′∈C2∗[0,∞)for allx∈[0,∞). Therefore by Taylor’s formula
f(t) =f(x) +f′(x)(t−x) +1
2f
′′(x)(t−x)2+r(t;x)(t−x)2, (10)
wherer(t,x)is the Peano form of the remainder andr(t,x)∈C2∗[0,∞). Also limt→xr(t,x) =0. Now applying the
operatorsMqn
n,α,βin(10), we get [n]qn(Mqn
n,α,β(f;x)−f(x)) =f′(x)[n]qnM

By the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, we have

n,α,β(r2(t;x);x) r
Mqn
n,α,β(((t−x)2;x)) (11)
Asr2(x;x) =0 andr2(.;x)∈C2∗[0,∞), it follows that∀x∈[0,A]
l i mn→∞Mnqn,α,β(r
2(t;x);x) =r2(x;x) =0 (12)
uniformly and so RHS of(11)becomes zero. Therefore we get
