We present a new, very short proof of a conjecture by I. Ra\c{s}a, which is an inequality involving basic Bernstein polynomials and convex functions. It was affirmed positively very recently by J. Mrowiec, T. Rajba and S. W\k{a}sowicz…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for Borel measures to satisfy the inequality introduced by Komisarski, Rajba (2018). This inequality is a generalization of the convex order inequality for binomial distributions, which was proved…
A recent conjecture by I. Ra\c{s}a asserts that the sum of the squared Bernstein basis polynomials is a convex function in $[0,1]$. This conjecture turns out to be equivalent to a certain upper pointwise estimate of the ratio…
During the Conference on Ulam's Type Stability (Rytro, Poland, 2014), Ioan Rasa recalled his 25-years-old problem concerning some inequality involving the Bernstein polynomials. We offer the complete solution (in positive). As a~tool we use…
The Bernstein polynomial basis sees significant use owing to its unique properties, particularly in the field of optimal control. However, the basis is known to have a slow rate of convergence to the function it approximates. With this in…
A fundamental problem in numerical analysis and approximation theory is approximating smooth functions by polynomials. A much harder version under recent consideration is to enforce bounds constraints on the approximating polynomial. In…

In this article, we obtain two interesting general inequalities concerning Riemman sums of convex functions, which in particular, sharpen Alzer's inequality and give a suitable converse for it.
We prove concentration inequalities for functions of independent random variables {under} sub-gaussian and sub-exponential conditions. The utility of the inequalities is demonstrated by an extension of the now classical method of Rademacher…
We study a weighted version of Carleman's inequality via Carleman's original approach. As an application of our result, we prove a conjecture of Bennett.
A generalization of the Bernstein matrix concentration inequality to random tensors of general order is proposed. This generalization is based on the use of Einstein products between tensors, from which a strong link can be established…

We prove a weak converse estimate for the simultaneous approximation by several forms of the Bernstein polynomials with integer coefficients. It is stated in terms of moduli of smoothness. In particular, it yields a big $O$-characterization…
This is a survey paper concerning some theorems on stochastic convex ordering and their applications to functional inequalities for convex functions. We present the recent results on those subjects
Bernstein polynomial approximation to a continuous function has a slower rate of convergence as compared to other approximation methods. "The fact seems to have precluded any numerical application of Bernstein polynomials from having been…

We give a distribution-dependent concentration inequality for functions of independent variables. The result extends Bernstein's inequality from sums to more general functions, whose variation in any argument does not depend too much on the…
It is be shown that the sequence of Bernstein polynomials for a function of several variables converges to this function uniformly along with every partial derivative of any order, provided that the latter derivative is well defined and…
