Let be a nondecreasing function
on such that and
for every .
Given a real- or complex- valued function , we define
and its weighted mean as
provided .
If the limit
exists, then also exists. However, the converse is not true in general.
The converse implication might hold under some appropriate conditions. These conditions are called Tauberian conditions
and theorems involving these conditions are called Tauberian theorems.
In this paper, we have given an alternative proof of the Tauberian theorem stating that
the existence of follows from that of
and a Tauberian condition.
If is a real or complex-valued function, then this
Tauberian condition is one-sided or two-sided, respectively.
