In the present paper, we study a new type of Bernstein operators depending on the parameter . The Kantorovich modification of these sequences of linear positive operators will be considered. A quantitative Voronovskaja type theorem by means of Ditzian-Totik modulus of smoothness is proved. Also, a Grüss-Voronovskaja type theorem for λ-Kantorovich operators is provided. Some numerical examples which show the relevance of the results are given.
Keywords: Bernstein operator; Kantorovich operators; Rate of convergence; Voronovskaja theorem.
