Abstract

This chapter presents an overview of the results related to the q-Bernstein polynomials with q > 1 attached to discontinuous functions on [0, 1]. It is emphasized that the singularities of such functions located on the set

$$\displaystyle{\mathbb{J}_{q}:=\{ 0\} \cup \{ q^{-l}\}_{ l=0}^{\infty },\;\;q> 1,}$$

are definitive for the investigation of the convergence properties of their q-Bernstein polynomials.

In the memory of Professor Hüseyin Şirin Hüseyin
