Composition of integral-type operators and discrete operators involving Laguerre polynomials

Abstract

In this note we provide a new way to capture operators involving Laguerre polynomials by composition of an integral operator and a discrete operator. The new operator so obtained is a discrete operator. We give three examples by considering composition of Szász-Durrmeyer operator, exponential-type operator related to 2x3/2\\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \\usepackage{amsmath} \\usepackage{wasysym} \\usepackage{amsfonts} \\usepackage{amssymb} \\usepackage{amsbsy} \\usepackage{mathrsfs} \\usepackage{upgreek} \\setlength{\\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \\begin{document}$$2x^{3/2}$$\\end{document} and the Phillips operator, respectively, with Szász-Mirakyan operators. In all cases we obtain positive linear, discretely defined operators which are based on Laguerre polynomials and approximate functions on the positive real half-axis.
