Many operators are introduced for the approximation of real functions, but little for the approximation of complex functions. These studies are for analytic functions.
In this article, we define a new type of Szasz-Mirakjan operator. Then we estimate the degree of approximation using this modified complex Szasz-Mirakjan operators to integrable functions on compact disks along with a quantitative estimation. Using quantitative methods, we also obtain an upper estimate in the simultaneous approximation by and exact degrees of approximation estimation for these operators' Stancu-type generalization.
