Uniform summability and Töplitz bases

Abstract

If the series Σαn is convergent, it follows that Σαnzn is uniformly convergent in a Stolz angle at z = 1 ((7), p. 229). It was shown in (3) that for the Ces methods (C, α) with α > – 1, and for a certain class of general Nörlund means (containing (C, α) for 0 < α ≤ 1), summability of Σαn implies uniform summability in a Stolz angle at z = 1. In section 2 we prove this theorem for a class of methods which satisfy a mean value property ((6), p. 31), and for a wider class of Nörlund methods which includes (C, α) for all α > 0. An analog is also proved for absolute summability.
