\textit{B. S. Mityagin} [Usp. Mat. Nauk 16, No. 4(100), 63-132 (1961; Zbl 0104.08601)] posed the problem, whether the kernel of every surjective continuous linear map \(E\to \omega\), where \(E\) is the center of a Riesz scale (resp. a power series space), is again the center of a Riesz scale (resp. a power series space). This can be considered as a problem of determining the structure of the kernel of an infinite system of linear equations \(f_n(x)= y_n\), \(n=1,2,\dots\), which is solvable for every right-hand side. The question was answered in the negative in a very strict sense by \textit{D. Vogt} [Math. Nachr. 141, 13-25 (1989; Zbl 0694.46001)]. In the present note we show that in the case of power series matrices the answer is positive in many cases. In fact, we show that for a power series matrix of type \(\Lambda_\infty(\alpha)\) the kernel is again a power series space if and only if \(\sup_n \frac{\alpha_{n+1}} {\alpha_n}<+\infty\). In this case it is isomorphic to \(\Lambda_\infty(\alpha)\). This also solves two questions raised by the author [Kernels of Eidelheit matrices and related topics, Proc. Int. Symp. Funct. Anal. Silivri, Doga, Math. 10, 232-256 (1985)]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0833.00014].
