The generalization of Meyer-König and Zeller operators by generating functions

In this paper, theorems are proved concerned with some approximation properties of generating functions type Meyer-König and Zeller operators with the help of a Korovkin type theorem. Secondly, we compute the rates of convergence of these operators by means of the modulus of continuity, Peetre’s K-functional and the elements of the modified Lipschitz class. Also we introduce the rth order generalization of these operators and we obtain approximation properties of them. In the last part, we give some applications to the differential equations.  2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved
