Durrmeyer variant of certain approximation operators

In the present article, we introduce a Durrmeyer variant of certain approximation operators. We estimate the moment-generating function and moments of these operators employing the Lambert W function and establish some direct results. We further provide a composition of these operators with Szász–Mirakjan operators and estimate direct results for the composition operator. Additionally, we provide a graphical comparison of the approximation properties of the operators.
