We discuss the convergence of approximate identities in Musielak-Orlicz spaces extending the results given by Cruz-Uribe and Fiorenza (2007) and the authors F.-Y. Maeda, Y. Mizuta and T. Ohno (2010). As in these papers, we treat the case where the approximate identity is of potential type and the case where the approximate identity is defined by a function of compact support. We also give a Young type inequality for convolution with respect to the norm in Musielak-Orlicz spaces.
In this paper, we consider Lipschitz conditions for tri-quadratic functional equations. We introduce a new notion similar to that of the left invariant mean and prove that a family of functions with this property can be approximated by tri-quadratic functions via a Lipschitz norm.
In this article we propose a method of parameters estimation for the class of discrete stable laws. Discrete stable distributions form a discrete analogy to classical stable distributions and share many interesting properties with them such as heavy tails and skewness. Similarly as stable laws discrete stable distributions are defined through characteristic function and do not posses a probability mass function in closed form. This inhibits the use of classical estimation methods such as maximum likelihood and other approach has to be applied. We depart from the H-method of maximum likelihood suggested by Kagan (1976) where the likelihood function is replaced by a function called informant which is an approximation of the likelihood function in some Hilbert space. For this method only some functionals of the distribution are required, such as probability generating function or characteristic function. We adopt this method for the case of discrete stable distributions and in a simulation study show the performance of this method.
Let $L\subset C$ be a regular Jordan curve. In this work, the approximation properties of the $p$-Faber-Laurent rational series expansions in the $\omega $ weighted Lebesgue spaces $L^p(L,\omega )$ are studied. Under some restrictive conditions upon the weight functions the degree of this approximation by a $k$th integral modulus of continuity in $L^p(L,\omega )$ spaces is estimated.
Using the $q$-Bernstein basis, we construct a new sequence $\{ L_{n} \}$ of positive linear operators in $C[0,1].$ We study its approximation properties and the rate of convergence in terms of modulus of continuity.
In this paper we give some new results concerning solvability of the 1-dimensional differential equation $y^{\prime } = f(x,y)$ with initial conditions. We study the basic theorem due to Picard. First we prove that the existence and uniqueness result remains true if $f$ is a Lipschitz function with respect to the first argument. In the second part we give a contractive method for the proof of Picard theorem. These considerations allow us to develop two new methods for finding an approximation sequence for the solution. Finally, some applications are given.
It is not the purpose of this paper to construct approximations but to establish a class of almost periodic functions which can be approximated, with an arbitrarily prescribed accuracy, by continuous periodic functions uniformly on ${\mathbb R} = (-\infty ; +\infty )$.
We introduce modified (p, q)-Bernstein-Durrmeyer operators. We discuss approximation properties for these operators based on Korovkin type approximation theorem and compute the order of convergence using usual modulus of continuity. We also study the local approximation property of the sequence of positive linear operators D∗ n,p,q and compute the rate of convergence for the function f belonging to the class LipM(γ).
In the paper, we discuss convergence properties and Voronovskaja type theorem for bivariate $q$-Bernstein polynomials for a function analytic in the polydisc $D_{R_{1}}\times D_{R_{2}}=\{z\in C\colon \vert z\vert <R_{1}\} \times \{ z\in C\colon \vert z\vert <R_{1}\}$ for arbitrary fixed $q>1$. We give quantitative Voronovskaja type estimates for the bivariate $q$-Bernstein polynomials for $q>1$. In the univariate case the similar results were obtained by S. Ostrovska: $q$-Bernstein polynomials and their iterates. J. Approximation Theory 123 (2003), 232–255. and S. G. Gal: Approximation by Complex Bernstein and Convolution Type Operators.

The paper deals with a class of discrete-time stochastic control processes under a discounted optimality criterion with random discount rate, and possibly unbounded costs. The state process { x_{t} } and the discount process { \alpha_{t} } evolve according to the coupled difference equations x_{t+1}=F(x_{t},\alpha _{t},a_{t},\xi _{t}), \alpha_{t+1}=G(\alpha _{t},\eta _{t}) where the state and discount disturbance processes { \xi _{t} } and { \eta _{t} } are sequences of i.i.d. random variables with densities \rho^{\xi } and \rho^{\eta } respectively. The main objective is to introduce approximation algorithms of the optimal cost function that lead up to construction of optimal or nearly optimal policies in the cases when the densities \rho ^{\xi } and \rho ^{\eta } are either known or unknown. In the latter case, we combine suitable estimation methods with control procedures to construct an asymptotically discounted optimal policy.
