Korovkin type theorem and iterates of certain positive linear operators

Abstract: In this paper we prove Korovkin type theorem for iterates of general positive linear operators $T:C\left[ 0,1\right] \rightarrow C\left[ 0,1\right] $ and derive quantitative estimates in terms of modulus of smoothness. In particular, we show that under some natural conditions the iterates $T^{m}:C\left[ 0,1\right] \rightarrow C\left[ 0,1\right] $ converges strongly to a fixed point of the original operator $T$. The results can be applied to several well-known operators; we present here the $q$-MKZ operators, the $q$-Stancu operators, the genuine $q$-Bernstein--Durrmeyer operators and the Cesaro operators.
