A note on an extension of absolute Riesz summability factors of an infinite series and its applications (Q2869558)

Let \(\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} t_n\) be a given infinite series with \((s_n)\) as the sequence of its partial sums. Let \((p_n)\) be a sequence of positive numbers such that NEWLINE\[NEWLINEP_n=\sum_{v=0}^{n}p_v\to \infty\quad \text{as}\quad n\to \infty \quad(0=P_{-i}=p_{-i},\, i\geq 1).NEWLINE\]NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe sequence to the sequence transformation \(t_{n}=\frac{1}{P_n}\sum_{v=0}^{n}p_vs_v\) defines the sequence \((t_n)\) of the \((\overline{N},p_n)\) means of the sequence \((s_n)\) generated by the sequence of coefficients \((p_n)\).NEWLINENEWLINEIn this paper, the author introduces a new general method of summability of an infinite series as follows:NEWLINENEWLINEIt is said that the series \(\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} t_n\) is summable \(|\overline{N},\phi _n;\tau |_k\), \(k\geq 1\) and \(\tau \geq 0\), if the series NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\phi _{n}^{\tau k+k-1}|t_{n}-t_{n-1}|^kNEWLINE\]NEWLINE converges, where \((\phi _n)\) is a sequence of positive real numbers.NEWLINENEWLINEThe author also proves a general theorem (see Theorem A of the paper) from which he derives several known results obtained by other authors.
