Row-finite summation method

From Encyclopedia of Mathematics
Jump to: navigation, search

A matrix summation method determined by a row-finite matrix, that is, a matrix in which each row has only finitely many non-zero entries. An important special case of a row-finite summation method is a triangular summation method.

For every regular matrix summation method for sequences (cf. Regular summation methods), a row-finite summation method that is equivalent and compatible (see Inclusion of summation methods; Compatibility of summation methods) with it on the set of all bounded sequences can be constructed (see [3]). However, there exist regular matrix summation methods for which there is no equivalent row-finite summation method on the set of all sequences (see [4] for an example).
