Results conceming the
Walsh-Fourier coefficients of continuous functions are obtained which extend the
work of Bockarev to the case of nonabsolutely convergent Walsh series. Analogues of
results for trigonometric series with monotonically decreasing coefficients are proven
for the Walsh system. In particular, it is shown that, unlike the trigonometric case,
convexity of the coefficlents is not sufficient to guarantee that such series are always
nonnegative.
