Silverman–Toeplitz theorem

Silverman–Toeplitz theorem

In mathematics, the Silverman–Toeplitz theorem, first proved by Otto Toeplitz, is a result in summability theory characterizing matrix summability methods that are regular. A regular matrix summability method is a matrix transformation of a convergent sequence which preserves the limit.

Silverman–Toeplitz theorem

An infinite matrix (a_{i,j})_{i,j \in \mathbb{N}} with complex-valued entries defines a regular summability method if and only if it satisfies all of the following properties

\lim_{i \to \infty} a_{i,j} = 0 \quad j \in \mathbb{N} (every column sequence converges to 0)
\lim_{i \to \infty} \sum_{j=0}^{\infty} a_{i,j} = 1 (the row sums converge to 1)
\sup_{i} \sum_{j=0}^{\infty} \vert a_{i,j} \vert < \infty (the absolute row sums are bounded).
