In this paper the hybrid block-pulse function and Bernstein polynomials are introduced to approximate the solution of linear Volterra integral equations. Both second and first kind integral equations, with regular, as well as weakly singular kernels, have been considered. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method. The obtained results show that the hyb...

Bernstein coe cients provide a discrete approximation of the behavior of a polynomial inside an interval. This can be used for example to isolate real roots of polynomials. We prove a criterion for the existence of a single root in an interval and the correctness of the de Casteljau algorithm to compute e ciently Bernstein coe cients. Key-words: Polynomials, de Casteljau, Bernstein polynomials,...

The mathematical modeling of the large deflections for the cantilever beams leads to a nonlinear differential equation with the mixed boundary conditions. Different numerical methods have been implemented by various authors for such problems. In this paper, two novel numerical techniques are investigated for the numerical simulation of the problem. The first is based on a spectral method utiliz...

Bernstein polynomials and Bézier curves are of fundamental importance for Computer Aided Geometric Design (CAGD). They are used for the design of curves and they are the starting point for several generalizations: in particular to higher dimensions and to B-splines. Powerful algorithms are available for both their algebraic construction and their visualization, and their basic theory (explained...

Iterated Bernstein polynomial approximations of degree n for continuous function which also use the values of the function at i/n, i = 0, 1, . . . , n, are proposed. The rate of convergence of the classic Bernstein polynomial approximations is significantly improved by the iterated Bernstein polynomial approximations without increasing the degree of the polynomials. The same idea applies to the...

*Correspondence: [email protected] Department of Mathematics, Faculty of Science, University of Akdeniz, Antalya, TR-07058, Turkey Abstract In this paper, we investigate some new identities related to the unification of the Bernstein-type polynomials, Bernoulli polynomials, Euler numbers and Stirling numbers of the second kind. We also give some remarks and applications of the Bernstein-ty...

In this paper, a collocation method based on the Bernstein polynomials is presented for the fractional Riccati type differential equations. By writing t? ta (0 < a < 1) in the truncated Bernstein series, the truncated fractional Bernstein series is obtained and then it is transformed into the matrix form. By using Caputo fractional derivative, the matrix forms of the fractional derivatives are ...

Throughout his life Erdős showed a particular fascination with inequalities for constrained polynomials. One of his favorite type of polynomial inequalities was Markovand Bernstein-type inequalities. For Erdős, Markovand Bernstein-type inequalities had their own intrinsic interest. He liked to see what happened when the polynomials are restricted in certain ways. Markovand Bernstein-type inequa...
