## An application of Banach limits.(English)Zbl 0652.40009

Let $$\ell_{\infty}$$ and c denote the Banach space of bounded and convergent sequences respectively, $$\sigma$$ an injection of the set of positive integers into itself having no finite orbits, and T the operator defined on $$\ell_{\infty}$$ by $$Ty(n)=y(\sigma n).$$ A positive linear functional $${\mathcal L}$$ with $$\| {\mathcal L}\| =1$$ is called a $$\sigma$$- mean if $${\mathcal L}(y)={\mathcal L}(Ty)$$ for all y in $$\ell_{\infty}$$. A sequence y is said to be $$\sigma$$-convergent denoted $$y\in V\sigma$$, if $${\mathcal L}(y)$$ takes the same value, called $$\sigma$$-lim y, for all $$\sigma$$-means $${\mathcal L}$$. P. Schaefer gave necessary and sufficient conditions on a matrix A to ensure that $$A(c)\subset V_{\sigma}$$, and additional conditions ensuring that $$\sigma -\lim Ay=\lim y$$ for all $$y\in c$$. We call such matrices $$\sigma$$-regular. The authors prove one theorem using $$\sigma$$-regular matrices to sum the sequence of Walsh functions.
