Abstract

Let qk=(k+αk) for α>1 and Qn=k=0nqk. Suppose Aq={ank}, where ank=qk/Qn for 0kn and 0 otherwise. Aq is called the Abel-type weighted mean matrix. The purpose of this paper is to study these transformations as mappings into . A necessary and sufficient condition for Aq to be - is proved. Also some other properties of the Aq matrix are investigated.
