Abstract

LetL(α, r) denote the class of complex sequences (x n) having an asymptotic expansion of type

$$x_n \sim \sum\limits_{i \ge 0} {c_i n^{ - (\alpha + ri)} } , c_0 \ne 0,\alpha > 0,r > 0.$$

We describe the asymptotic behaviour of sequences obtained by applying to (x n) some specific modified versions of the iterated Δ2 transform, the θ2 transform and some combinations of them. In this paper, we study the particular casesr=1 andr=1/2, which are the most useful in practice. The results are also valid for sequences (S n) whose error sequence (x n) defined byx n=S nS, S=limS n, belongs to someL(α, r).
