The main results of this
paper are two theorems which give necessary conditions for a matrix to map
into l the set of all subsequences (rearrangements) of a null sequence not
in l. These results provide affirmative answers to the following questions
proposed by J. A. Fridy. Is a null sequence x necessarily in l if there exists a
sum-preserving l–l matrix A that maps all subsequences (rearrangements) of x into
l?
