Abstract

We establish the pointwise approximation theorems for the combinations of Bernstein polynomials by the rth Ditzian–Totik modulus of smoothness \( \omega ^{r}_{\Phi } (f,t) \)where Φ is an admissible step–weight function. An equivalence relation between the derivatives of these polynomials and the smoothness of functions is also obtained.
