Generalizations of some theorems of Hardy and Littlewood concerning power series and moment constants (Q1313679)

A sequence \(\{\gamma_ n\}\) of positive numbers is \(\beta\)-power- monotone increasing (\(\beta\)-power-monotone decreasing) if \[ n^ \beta \gamma_ n\geq (\leq) m^ \beta \gamma_ m\leqno{(*)} \] holds for any \(n\geq m\) with a real \(\beta\). If instead of \((*)\) only \[ Kn^ \beta \gamma_ n\geq (\leq ) m^ \beta\gamma_ m \] holds, then the sequence \(\{\gamma_ n\}\) is quasi \(\beta\)-power-monotone increasing (quasi \(\beta\)-power-monotone decreasing). For example, the following result is proved. If \(\sum \lambda_ n< \infty\), then \(\sigma_{c,n}:= \sum^ \infty_{m=1} a_ m e^{- m/n}\); and if \(\sum \lambda_ n= \infty\), then \(\sigma_{d,n}:= \sum^ \infty_{m=1} a_ m e^{-n/m}\), where \(a_ n\geq 0\), \(\lambda_ n> 0\), \(p>0\), \(\beta\geq 0\) and \(\gamma\leq 0\). If \(p\geq 1\) and \[ \Lambda_ n:= \lambda^{1-p}_ n\left( \sum^ \infty_{k=n} \lambda_ k\right)^ p \] is quasi \(\beta\)-power-monotone increasing, then \[ \sum \lambda_ n \sigma^ p_{c,n}\leq K \sum \lambda^{1-p}_ n a^ p_ n\left(\sum^ \infty_{k=n} \lambda_ k\right)^ p; \] and if \(\{\lambda_ n\}\) is a quasi \(\beta\)-power-monotone decreasing sequence, then \[ \sum \lambda_ n \sigma^ p_{d,n}\leq K \sum \lambda^{1-p}_ n a^ p_ n\left(\sum^ r_{k=1} \lambda_ k\right)^ p. \] If \(0< p\leq 1\), then the signs in both inequalities are reversed.
