Uniform summability of power series

It is shown that for the Cesàro means (C, α) with α > - 1, and for a certain class of more general Nörlund means, summability of the series σan implies uniform summability of the series σan zn in a Stolz angle at z = 1.If B is a normal matrix and (B) denotes the series summability field with the usual Banach space topology, then the vectors {ek} (ek = {0,0,..., 1,0,...}) are said to form a Toplitz basis for (B) relative to a method H if H — Σakek = a for each a = {ak}ε(B). It is shown for example that the above relation holds for B = (C,α), α> − 1 , and H = Abel method; also for B = (C,α) and H = (C,β) with 0 ≤ α ≤ β.Applications are made to theorems on summability factors.
