Extension of Saturation Theorems for the Sampling Kantorovich Operators

In this paper, we extend the saturation results for the sampling Kantorovich operators proved in a previous paper, to more general settings. In particular, exploiting certain Voronovskaja-formulas for the well-known generalized sampling series, we are able to extend a previous result from the space of C2\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$C^2$$\end{document}-functions to the space of C1\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$C^1$$\end{document}-functions. Further, requiring an additional assumption, we are able to reach a saturation result even in the space of the uniformly continuous and bounded functions. In both the above cases, the assumptions required on the kernels, which define the sampling Kantorovich operators, have been weakened with respect to those assumed previously. On this respect, some examples have been discussed at the end of the paper.
