Abstract

We define and study a new family of univariate rational Bernstein operators. They are positive operators exact on linear polynomials. Moreover, like classical polynomial Bernstein operators, they enjoy the traditional shape preserving properties and they are total variation diminishing. Finally, for a specific class of denominators, some convergence results are proved, in particular a Voronovskaja theorem, and some error bounds are given.
