We prove two identities for multivariate Bernstein polynomials on simplex, which are considered on a pointwise. In this paper, we study good approximations of Bernstein polynomials for every continuous functions on simplex and the higher…
A multidimensional generalization of the Bernstein class of functions and the properties of functions of the introduced class are examined. In particular, a new proof of the integral representation of Bernstein functions of many variables…

Let $\mathscr{C}_\mathbb{Z}([0,1])$ be the metric space of real-valued continuous functions on $[0,1]$ with integer values at $0$ and $1$, equipped with the uniform (supremum) metric $d_\infty$. It is a classical theorem in approximation…
We give derivations of some basic results for the Bernstein approximation in $n$ variables that are useful in investigating copulas. It is shown that Bernstein approximations of copulas are again copulas. We exhibit a stochastic…
We give several new characterizations of completely monotone functions and Bernstein functions via two approaches: the first one is driven algebraically via elementary preserving mappings and the second one is developed in terms of the…
One-parameter semigroups of holomorphic functions appear naturally in various applications of Complex Analysis, and in particular, in the theory of (temporally) homogeneous Markov processes. A suitable analogue of one-parameter semigroups…
We introduce a class of logarithmic Lambert W random variables for a specific family of distributions. In particular, we characterize the log-Lambert W random variables for chi-squared distributions which naturally appear in the likelihood…
We study multivariate entire functions and polynomials with non-negative coefficients. A class of {\bf Strongly Log-Concave} entire functions, generalizing {\it Minkowski} volume polynomials, is introduced: an entire function $f$ in $m$…
Herein, we present a canonical form for a natural and necessary generalization of the Lambert W function, natural in that it requires minimal mathematical definitions for this generalization, and necessary in that it provides a means of…
We recast homogeneous linear recurrence sequences with fixed coefficients in terms of partial Bell polynomials, and use their properties to obtain various combinatorial identities and multifold convolution formulas. Our approach relies on a…
We define a class of multivariate Laurent polynomials closely related to Chebyshev polynomials, and prove the simple but somewhat surprising (in view of the fact that the signs of the coefficients of the Chebyshev polynomials themselves…
We study an infinite class of sequences of sparse polynomials that have binomial coefficients both as exponents and as coefficients. This generalizes a sequence of sparse polynomials which arises in a natural way as graph theoretic…
We prove an analogue of the classical Bernstein theorem concerning the rate of polynomial approximation of piecewise analytic functions on a compact subset of the real line.
Polynomial sequence ${P_m}_{m\geq0}$ is $q$-logarithmically concave if $P_{m}^2-P_{m+1}P_{m-1}$ is a polynomial with nonnegative coefficients for any $m\geq{1}$. We introduce an analogue of this notion for formal power series whose…
We point out a simple criterion for convergence of polynomials to a concrete entire function in the Laguerre-P\'{o}lya ($\mathcal{LP}$) class (of all functions arising as uniform limits of polynomials with only real roots). We then use this…
Bent functions are Boolean functions that are maximally nonlinear. They can be represented as bent squares, i.e., square matrices for which each row and each column is the Walsh spectrum of a Boolean function. Using this representation, it…
We characterize of the $q$-Bernstein functions in terms of $q$-Laplace transform. Moreover, we present several results of $q$-completely monotonic, $q$-log completely monotonic and $q$-Bernstein functions.
In classical physics, calculating the slack of a hanging chain is a problem that has attracted interest. This study aims to solve this problem through experiment and theory. When the length and distance of both the ends of a hanging chain…
