The
q-analogues of Bernstein operators were independently given by Lupaş [
25] and Phillips [
42]. Consequently, Mursaleen et al. [
33] applied the
\((p,q)\)-integers and studied the approximation properties of Bernstein operators. Recently, a Dunkl-type generalization of Szász operators [
47] via post-quantum calculus was studied by Alotaibi et al. [
10]. For more details and research motivation in Dunkl-type generalizations, we mention here some research articles [
13,
27,
34,
35,
37‐
39,
45,
46]. Let
\([s]_{p,q}\) be the
\((p,q)\)-integer defined as
$$\begin{aligned}& [ s ] _{p,q}=p^{s-1}+qp^{s-3}+\cdots +q^{s-1}= \textstyle\begin{cases} \frac{p^{s}-q^{s}}{p-q} & (p\neq q\neq 1), \\ \frac{1-q^{s}}{1-q} & (p=1), \\ s & (p=q=1),\end{cases}\displaystyle \\& (au+bv)_{p,q}^{s}:=\sum_{\ell =0}^{s}p^{ \frac{(s-\ell )(s-\ell -1)}{2}}q^{\frac{\ell (\ell -1)}{2}} \begin{bmatrix} s \\ \ell \end{bmatrix} _{p,q}a^{s-\ell }b^{\ell }u^{s-\ell }v^{\ell }, \\& (1-u)_{p,q}^{s}=(1-u) (p-qu) \bigl(p^{2}-q^{2}u \bigr)\cdots \bigl(p^{s-1}-q^{s-1}u\bigr), \\& (u-y)_{p,q}^{s}=\textstyle\begin{cases} \prod_{j=0}^{s-1}(p^{j}u-q^{j}y) & \text{if }s\in \mathbb{N}, \\ 1 & \text{if }s=0.\end{cases}\displaystyle \end{aligned}$$
(1.1)
The
\((p,q)\)-power basis is explained as
$$ (u\oplus v)_{p,q}^{s}=(u+v) (pu+qv) \bigl(p^{2}u+q^{2}v \bigr)\cdots \bigl(p^{s-1}u+q^{s-1}v\bigr). $$
Furthermore, the
\((p,q)\)-analogues of the exponential function are defined by
$$ e_{p,q}(u)=\sum_{\ell =0}^{\infty }p^{\frac{\ell (\ell -1)}{2}} \frac{u^{\ell }}{[\ell ]_{p,q}!},\qquad E_{p,q}(u)=\sum _{\ell =0}^{ \infty }q^{\frac{\ell (\ell -1)}{2}}\frac{u^{\ell }}{[\ell ]_{p,q}!}. $$
Moreover, the
\((p,q)\)-Dunkl analogue of the exponential function is defined by
$$\begin{aligned}& e_{\tau ,p,q}(u)=\sum_{\ell =0}^{\infty }p^{\frac{\ell (\ell -1)}{2}} \frac{u^{\ell }}{\gamma _{\tau ,p,q}(\ell )} , \end{aligned}$$
(1.2)
$$\begin{aligned}& \gamma _{\tau ,p,q}(\ell ) \\& \quad = \frac{\prod_{i=0}^{[\frac{\ell +1}{2}]-1}p^{2\tau (-1)^{i+1}+1} ( (p^{2})^{i}p^{2\tau +1}-(q^{2})^{i}q^{2\tau +1} ) \prod_{j=0}^{[\frac{\ell }{2}]-1}p^{2\tau (-1)^{j}+1} ( (p^{2})^{j}p^{2}-(q^{2})^{j}q^{2} ) }{(p-q)^{\ell }}. \end{aligned}$$
(1.3)
And a recursion identity is defined as
$$ \gamma _{\tau ,p,q}(\ell +1)= \frac{p^{2\tau (-1)^{\ell +1}+1}({p^{2\tau \theta _{\ell +1}+\ell +1}-q^{2\tau \theta _{\ell +1}+\ell +1}})}{(p-q)}\gamma _{\tau ,p,q}(\ell ), $$
(1.4)
where
$$ \theta _{\ell }= \textstyle\begin{cases} 0 & \text{for }\ell =2m, m=0,1,2,\dots , \\ 1 & \text{for }\ell =2m+1, m=0,1,2,\dots \end{cases} $$
(1.5)
In our demonstration, we let
\(u\geq 0\) and
\(C[0,\infty )\) be the class of all continuous functions on
\([0,\infty )\). Recent investigation in [
10,
38] defined the
\((p,q)\)-Dunkl analogue of Szász operators by
$$ D_{s,p,q}(f;u)=\frac{1}{e_{\tau ,p,q}([s]_{p,q}u)}\sum_{\ell =0}^{ \infty }\frac{([s]_{p,q}u)^{\ell }}{\gamma _{\tau ,p,q}(\ell )}p^{ \frac{\ell (\ell -1)}{2}}f \biggl( \frac{p^{\ell +2\tau \theta _{\ell }}-q^{\ell +2\tau \theta _{\ell }}}{p^{\ell -1}(p^{s}-q^{s})} \biggr) . $$
