In this paper we obtain necessary conditions for the series P P cmn, which is absolutely summable of order k by a doubly triangular matrix method A, to be such thatP P cmnmnis absolutely summable of order k by a doubly triangular matrix B.

The above inequality implies that each term of the left hand side is O.f.uv/k 1Mk.Oauvuv/g/.
Using the first term one obtains

Thus
j Obuvuvuvj D O.M. Oauvuv//;
which is condition (i).
In a similar manner one obtains conditions (ii) - (iv).

Every summability factor theorem becomes an inclusion theorem by setting each
mnD 1.
Corollary 1. Let A and B two doubly triangular matrices, A satisfying (2.1).
Then necessary conditions of the fact that thejAjksummability ofP P cmnimplies thejBjksummability ofP P cmnare the following items:

Proof. To prove Corollary1simply put mnD 1 in Theorem1. □ We shall call a doubly infinite matrix a product matrix if it can be written as the termwise product of two singly infinite matrices F and G; i.e., amnij D fmignj for each i; j; m; n.
A doubly infinite weighted mean matrix P has nonzero entries pij=Pmn, where p00is positive and all of the other pij are nonnegative, and PmnWDPm
i D0
Pn j D0pij. If P is a product matrix then the nonzero entries are piqj=PmQn, where p0> 0; pi>
0 for i > 0; q0> 0; qi 0 for j > 0 and PmWDPm
i D0pi; QnWDPn
j D0qj. Now we have the following corollary
