A Parametric Generalization of the Baskakov-Schurer-Szász-Stancu Approximation Operators

In this paper, we introduce and investigate a new class of the parametric generalization of the Baskakov-Schurer-Szász-Stancu operators, which considerably extends the well-known class of the classical Baskakov-Schurer-Szász-Stancu approximation operators. For this new class of approximation operators, we present a Korovkin type theorem and a Grüss-Voronovskaya type theorem, and also study the rate of its convergence. Moreover, we derive several results which are related to the parametric generalization of the Baskakov-Schurer-Szász-Stancu operators in the weighted spaces. Finally, we prove some shape-preserving properties for the parametric generalization of the Baskakov-Schurer-Szász-Stancu operators and, as a special case, we deduce the corresponding shape-preserving properties for the classical Baskakov-Schurer-Szász-Stancu approximation operators.

On the Numerical Solution of Fractional Boundary Value Problems by a Spline Quasi-Interpolant Operator

Boundary value problems having fractional derivative in space are used in several fields, like biology, mechanical engineering, control theory, just to cite a few. In this paper we present a new numerical method for the solution of boundary value problems having Caputo derivative in space. We approximate the solution by the Schoenberg-Bernstein operator, which is a spline positive operator having shape-preserving properties. The unknown coefficients of the approximating operator are determined by a collocation method whose collocation matrices can be constructed efficiently by explicit formulas. The numerical experiments we conducted show that the proposed method is efficient and accurate.

Shape-Preserving Properties of a Relaxed Four-Point Interpolating Subdivision Scheme

In this paper, we analyze shape-preserving behavior of a relaxed four-point binary interpolating subdivision scheme. These shape-preserving properties include positivity-preserving, monotonicity-preserving and convexity-preserving. We establish the conditions on the initial control points that allow the generation of shape-preserving limit curves by the four-point scheme. Some numerical examples are given to illustrate the graphical representation of shape-preserving properties of the relaxed scheme.

Shape Preserving Properties with Constraints on the Tension Parameter of Binary Three-Point Approximating Subdivision Scheme

The paper analyzes conditions for preserving the shape properties from the initial data to the limit curves of the binary three-point approximating subdivision scheme. We provide suitable conditions on the initial data utilizing the tension parameter [Formula: see text], thus the scheme can maintain three important shape properties, namely positivity, monotonicity and convexity in the limit curves. The use of derived conditions is illustrated in few examples, which offers more flexibility in the generation of smooth limit curves endowed with shape preserving properties.

A Family of 6-Point n-Ary Interpolating Subdivision Schemes

We derive three-step algorithm based on divided difference to generate a class of 6-point n-ary interpolating sub-division schemes. In this technique second order divided differences have been calculated at specific position and used to insert new vertices. Interpolating sub-division schemes are more attractive than approximating schemes in computer aided geometric designs because of their interpolation property. Polynomial generation and polynomial reproduction are attractive properties of sub-division schemes. Shape preserving properties are also significant tool in sub-division schemes. Further, some significant properties of ternary and quaternary sub-division schemes have been elaborated such as continuity, degree of polynomial generation, polynomial reproduction and approximation order. Furthermore, shape preserving property that is monotonicity is also derived. Moreover, the visual performance of proposed schemes has also been demonstrated through several examples.

Shape Preservation of Tension Controlled Ternary 4-point Non-Stationary Interpolating Subdivision Scheme

The aim of this work is to analyze and investigate the shape preserving properties of ternary 4-point non-stationary interpolating subdivision schemes constructed by Beccari et al. [1] with a tension parameter !k+1 which can reproducing exponential. Moreover, the conditions on the initial control points are developed that allow user to generate shape preserving limit curves after a nite number of subdivision steps and generalize these results in limiting case. Signicance of derived conditions are illustrated through graphs and the whole discussion is followed by examples.
