The method of summability with which I shall be concerned here is denoted by (V, α ) and is defined as follows:—The series Σαn is said to be summable (V, α ) to the sum s if

This is a particular case of a method due to Valiron in which μ–2α is replaced by a function of μ.

1 Summability (V, α) is usually defined by means of the limit

The definition which I have given makes for greater compactness throughout the paper.
