In the present paper, we introduce Durrmeyer type modification of (p, q)-Szasz Mirakjan oper- ´ ators. We estimate the rate of convergence and local approximation behavior of the operators using modulus of continuity and Peetre’s K-functional. We compute the quantitative estimates for difference of the proposed operators with (p, q)-Szasz Mirakjan operators and ´ (p, q)-Szasz Mirakjan Kantorovich operators.
