Runge's phenomenon reveals that interpolation methods lack uniform convergence of the sequence of the thus constructed polynomials to the function. The linear positive operators, however, can be relied on to ensure convergence across the whole domain. Further, linear positive operators can be modified suitably to approximate integrable functions. In this paper, we prove theoretical results on the estimates for the rate of approximation of a new sequence of operators. In addition, we find an error estimate for a larger class of functions, the functions of bounded variation. Finally, the theory is supported by suitable numerical examples, and the convergence estimates of the proposed operator are compared with the classical modified Bernstein–Durrmeyer operator.

The purpose of the present paper is to introduce and study a sequence of positive linear operators defined on suitable spaces of measurable functions on [ 0 , ∞) and continuous function spaces with polynomial weights. These operators are Kantorovich type generalization of Jakimovski–Leviatan operators based on multiple Appell polynomials. Using these operators, we approximate suitable measurable functions by knowing their mean values on a sequence of subintervals of [ 0 , ∞) that do not constitute a subdivision of it. We also discuss the rate of convergence of these operators using moduli of smoothness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
