Some notes on matrix transforms of summability domains of Cesàro matrices

open access: yesMathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2010
In this paper sufficient conditions for a matrix M = (mnk ) (mnk are Cesàro numbers As n‐k, s ∈ C if k ≤ n and mnk= 0 if k > n) to be a transform from the summability domain of the Cesàro method Cα into the summability domain of another Cesàro method Cβ ,
