Abstract

This paper investigates global smoothness preservation by the Bernstein operators. When the smoothness is measured by the modulus of continuity, this problem is well understood. When it is measured by the second order modulus of smoothness, H. Gonska conjectured that the Lipschitz classes of second order keep invariate under the Bernstein operators. Here we present a counterexample to this conjecture. Then we introduce a new modulus of smoothness and show that the Lip-α(0 < α ≤ 1) classes measured by this modulus are invariate under the Bernstein operators. By means of this modulus we also improve some previous results concerning global smoothness preservation.
