Introduction
All real sequence's space is expressed by ω. Any Λ⊂ω is called a sequence space. Frequently encountered sequence spaces can be denoted as ℓ∞ (space of bounded sequences), c (space of convergent sequences), c0 (space of null sequences), and ℓp (1≤p<∞) (space of absolutely p-summable sequences). These are Banach spaces with ‖u‖ℓ∞=‖u‖c=‖u‖c0=supr∈N|ur| and ‖u‖ℓp=(∑r|ur|p)1p for u=(ur)∈ω, ∑r|ur|=∑+∞r=0|ur| and N={0,1,2,3,...}. Furthermore, bs and cs denote the bounded and convergent series' spaces, respectively.
A Banach space on which all coordinate functionals κr defined as κr(u)=ur are continuous is named a BK-space. Consider the sequence e(r) whose rth term is 1 and other terms are zero. If each u=(ur)∈Λ⊂ω can be expressed uniquely as u=∑rure(r), then the space Λ satisfies the AK-property.
Consider the multiplier set (Λ⋇Υ) defined by
for Λ,Υ⊂ω. Thus, the α-, β- and γ-duals of Λ are expressed by
Br refers to the rth row of an infinite matrix B=(brs) with real terms. Additionally, if the series is convergent for all r∈N, (Bu)r=∑sbrsus is a B-transform of u∈ω. The infinite matrix B is a matrix mapping from Λ to Υ, if Bu∈Υ for all u∈Λ. The class of all matrix mappings described from Λ to Υ is given by (Λ:Υ). Additionally, B∈(Λ:Υ) iff Br∈Λβ and Bu∈Υ for all u∈Λ. The set
is a matrix domain of B in Υ.
Spaces Λ and Υ, between which a norm-preserving bijection can be defined, are linearly norm isomorphic spaces, and this situation is denoted by Λ≅Υ.
One of the impressive number sequences is the integer sequences consisting of Motzkin numbers which are named after Theodore Motzkin [21]. In mathematics, the rth Motzkin number refers to the number of distinct chords that can be drawn between r points on a circle without intersecting. It should be noted that it is not necessary for the chord to touch all points on the circle. The Motzkin numbers Mr (r∈N) have various applications in geometry, combinatorics, and number theory, and they are represented by the following sequence:
The Motzkin numbers satisfy the recurrence relations
Another relation provided by the Motzkin numbers is given below:
Furthermore, there are two other relations between Motzkin and Catalan numbers Cr, presented by
where ⌊.⌋ is the floor function.
The generating function m(u)=∑+∞r=0Mrur of the Motzkin numbers holds
and is described by
The expression on Motzkin numbers with the help of integral function is as follows:
They have the asymptotic behavior
Moreover, it is satisfied from Aigner [1] that
The idea of obtaining sequence spaces with infinity matrices created with the help of integer sequences, such as Schröder [6,7], Mersenne [8], Catalan [12,13,16], Fibonacci [14,15], Lucas [17,18], Bell [19], Padovan [28], and Leonardo [29], has been used by various authors for this purpose. In this context, sources such as summability theory, sequence spaces, matrix domain studies and the necessary basic concepts can be specified [2,4,5,9,11,24].
The Motzkin matrix M=(mrs)r,s∈N constructed with the help of Motzkin numbers and relation (1.2) by Erdem et al. [10] can be written follows:
It is possible to state the Motzkin matrix more clearly as follows:
Furthermore, it is also known from [10] that the Motzkin matrix M is conservative, that is, M∈(c:c) and the inverse M−1=(m−1rs) of the Motzkin matrix M is
where π0=0 and
for all r∈N∖{0}. From its definition, it is clear that M is a triangle. Furthermore, M-transform of a sequence u=(us) is stated as
The idea of constructing new normed sequence spaces as domains of special infinite matrices, as an application of summability theory to sequence spaces, has appeared as a favorite research area in recent years. Creating these infinite matrices with the help of special number sequences and thus obtaining new normed sequence spaces and also examining some of properties (e.g., completeness, inclusion relations, Schauder basis, duals, matrix transformations, compact operators, and core theorems) is newer topic of study since Kara and Başarır [14].
The primary research question of this study is whether it is possible to obtain new normed sequence spaces as the domain of the conservative Motzkin matrix obtained with the help of Motzkin numbers and to examine some of the properties just mentioned above on these spaces.
In this study, two new sequence spaces are obtained as domains of the Motzkin matrix on ℓp (1≤p<+∞) and ℓ∞. Subsequently, some algebraic and topological properties, inclusion relations, basis, duals, and matrix transformations of these spaces are presented. In the last section, compactness criteria of some matrix operators defined on these spaces are investigated.
2.
Motzkin sequence spaces ℓp(M) and ℓ∞(M)
In this part, we introduce the BK-sequence spaces ℓp(M) and ℓ∞(M) with the help of the Motzkin matrix which are linearly isomorphic to ℓp and ℓ∞, respectively. Finally, the Schauder basis of ℓp(M) and the inclusion relations of the spaces are presented.
Now, we may present the Motzkin sequence spaces ℓp(M) and ℓ∞(M) as follows:
and
for 1≤p<+∞. Then, ℓp(M) and ℓ∞(M) can be rewritten as ℓp(M)=(ℓp)M and ℓ∞(M)=(ℓ∞)M with the notation (1.1). The matrix domain ΥM is a Motzkin sequence space for each normed sequence space Υ.
It should be noted that BK-spaces have a significant role in summability theory. For instance, the matrix operators between BK-spaces are continuous. Additionally, there is a useful method for the characterizations of compact linear operators between the spaces as an application of the Hausdorf measure of non-compactness.
Now we can show that the newly defined spaces are BK-spaces:
Theorem 2.1. ℓp(M) and ℓ∞(M) are BK-spaces with
and
respectively.
Proof. In the proof of this theorem, it will be used that ℓp and ℓ∞ are BK-spaces. It is known from Wilansky [27] that ΥB is BK-space with ‖u‖ΥB=‖Bu‖Υ if B is triangle and Υ is a BK-space. Consequently, ℓp(M) and ℓ∞(M) are BK-spaces with the norms ‖.‖ℓp(M) and ‖.‖ℓ∞(M), respectively. □
Theorem 2.2. ℓp(M)≅ℓp and ℓ∞(M)≅ℓ∞.
Proof. In order to show that two spaces are linearly norm isomorphic, there must be a linear norm preserving bijection between them. The mapping K:ℓp(M)→ℓp, K(u)=Mu is linear and since K(u)=0⇒u=0, K is injective. Consider the sequences ν=(νs)∈ℓp and u=(us)∈ω with
For the equation
for ∑r−is=0(−1)sMr−s−iπs=0, if r≠i, then K is surjective. Additionally, since the relation ‖u‖ℓp(M)=‖Mu‖ℓp holds, then K keeps the norm.
The proof can be done similarly for the other spaces.
□
As a result of the isomorphism between the mentioned spaces, connections can be established between some properties. However, since the new concepts presented here may enable different perspectives and open a new door to generalizations, it is useful to express some basic theorems for newly defined spaces.
For a normed sequence space (Λ,‖.‖) and (ηr)∈Λ, (ηr) is a Schauder basis for Λ if for any u∈Λ, there is a unique sequence (σr) of scalars such that
as r→+∞. This can be stated as u=∑sσsηs.
The inverse image of the basis (e(s))s∈N of ℓp becomes the basis of ℓp(M) (1≤p<+∞) since K:ℓp(M)→ℓp is an isomorphism in Theorem 2.2. Therefore, it will be given the following result without proof.
Theorem 2.3. The set η(s)=(η(s)r)∈ℓp(M) expressed by
is a Schauder basis for ℓp(M) and the unique representation of any u∈ℓp(M) is stated as u=∑sσsη(s) for 1≤p<+∞ and σs=(Mu)s.
It is worth noting that since every normed linear space with a Schauder basis is separable, the sequence space ℓp(M) is seperable.
Theorem 2.4. The inclusion ℓp(M)⊂ℓ˜p(M) strictly holds for 1≤p<˜p<+∞.
Proof. For the first part, it is sufficient to show that every element taken from ℓp(M) is in ℓ˜p(M). Let us take u=(us)∈ℓp(M) such that Mu∈ℓp. Furthermore, it is known that ℓp⊂ℓ˜p for 1≤p<˜p<+∞. Then, Mu∈ℓ˜p and u=(us)∈ℓ˜p(M).
If ˜ν=M˜u∈ℓ˜p∖ℓp, then the rest of the proof is completed. □
Theorem 2.5. ℓ∞⊂ℓ∞(M).
Proof. For the proof, it is necessary to show that every element taken from ℓ∞ is in ℓ∞(M). For u=(us)∈ℓ∞, it is clear that
Thus, u∈ℓ∞(M). □
3.
Dual spaces
In third part of the article, duals of new spaces will be found.
The idea of dual space plays an important role in the representation of linear functionals and the characterization of matrix transformations between sequence spaces. Consider that ξ∈{α,β,γ}. In that case,
Additionally, for any Λ∈ω, Λα⊂Λβ⊂Λγ. If (brs)s∈N∈Λβ for all r∈N, then, the B-transform (Bu)r=∑sbrsus of any sequence u=(us)∈Λ is convergent for an infinite matrix B.
Now, consider the conditions (3.1)–(3.12) as
where, the F⊂N is finite and 1<p<+∞. It can be now presented the table created using [26] and characterizing some matrix classes:
Let us consider the sets ϖ1−ϖ7 which will be used to compute the duals:
Theorem 3.1. The following statements hold:
(ⅰ) (ℓp(M))α=ϖ1, (1<p<+∞),
(ⅱ) (ℓ1(M))α=ϖ2,
(ⅲ) (ℓ∞(M)α=ϖ3.
Proof. (ⅰ) From (1.5),
for all r∈N and u∈ℓp(M), where the infinite matrix G=(grs) can described as
Then by (3.13), τu=(τrur)∈ℓ1 while u∈ℓp(M) iff Gν∈ℓ1 while ν∈ℓp. Thus, τ∈(ℓp(M))α iff G∈(ℓp:ℓ1). From Table 1, (ℓp(M))α=ϖ1 for 1<p<+∞.
The proofs of (ⅱ) and (ⅲ) can be seen similarly to the first part through the aid of the conditions of the classes (ℓ1:ℓ1) and (ℓ∞:ℓ1), respectively, from Table 1. Therefore, they are ommitted. □
Theorem 3.2. The following statements hold:
(ⅰ) (ℓp(M))β=ϖ4∩ϖ5, (1<p<+∞),
(ⅱ) (ℓ1(M))β=ϖ4∩ϖ6,
(ⅲ) (ℓ∞(M)β=ϖ4∩ϖ7.
Proof. (ⅰ) Consider that τ=(τs)∈ω and u∈ℓp(M) with ν∈ℓp as (1.5). By considering the Eq (2.1), we can see that
for O=(ors) is expressed by
for every r,s∈N. Then, from (3.14), τu∈cs while u=(us)∈ℓp(M) iff ψ=(ψr)∈c while ν∈ℓp. In this case, τ∈(ℓp(M))β iff O∈(ℓp:c). Consequently, from the conditions of (ℓp:c) in Table 1, the proof is complete. □
The proofs of the (ⅱ) and (ⅲ) can easily be seen similarly to the first part through the aid of the conditions of the classes (ℓ1:c) and (ℓ∞:c), respectively, from the Table 1. Therefore, they are ommitted too.
Theorem 3.3. The following statements hold:
(ⅰ) (ℓp(M))γ=ϖ5,(1<p<+∞),
(ⅱ) (ℓ1(M))γ=ϖ6,
(ⅲ) (ℓ∞(M)γ=ϖ5 with q=1.
Proof. This can be done similarly with Theorem 3.2 by considering with together the classes (ℓp:ℓ∞), (ℓ1:ℓ∞), and (ℓ∞:ℓ∞) from Table 1 with O=(ors) expressed by (3.15). □

Matrix mappings
This section offers to submit the matrix classes related Motzkin sequence spaces described in this study. The theorem it will be written now forms the fundamental of this section.
Theorem 4.1. Let us consider the Λ,Υ∈ω, infinite matrices H(r)=(h(r)is) and H∗=(h∗rs) described as
and
for all r,s∈N. In that case, B=(brs)∈(Λ(M):Υ) if and only if H(r)∈(Λ:c) and H∗∈(Λ:Υ).
Proof. Let us consider B=(brs)∈(Λ(M):Υ) and u∈Λ(M). In that case,
for all i,r∈N. Since Bu exists, then H(r)∈(Λ:c). By passing limit for i→+∞ in the relation (4.3), Bu=H∗ν. Since Bu∈Υ, H∗ν∈Υ and so H∗∈(Λ:Ψ).
Conversely, let us suppose that H(r)∈(Λ:c) and H∗∈(Λ:Υ). Then, h∗rs∈Λβ which gives us (brs)s∈N∈(Λ(M))β for all r∈N. Hence, Bu exists for all u∈Λ(M). Therefore, from relation (4.3) for i→+∞, Bu=H∗ν. Thus B∈(Λ(M):Υ), which is desired result. □
Corollary 4.2. Consider the infinite matrices H(r)=(h(r)is) and H∗=(h∗rs) described with the relations (4.1) and (4.2), respectively. Then, the conditions of the classes (Γ(M):Ψ) can be deduced from Table 2, where Λ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞}, Υ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞,c,c0} and 1<p<+∞.
Theorem 4.3. Consider the infinite matrices ˜B=(˜brs) and B=(brs) described with the relation
In that case, B∈(Λ:Υ(M)) iff ˜B∈(Λ:Υ) for Λ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞,c,c0} and Υ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞}.
Proof. Consider that the infinite matrices ˜B and B described with the relation (4.4), Λ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞,c,c0}, and Υ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞}. For any u=(us)∈Λ,
This means that ˜Br(u)=Mr(Bu) for all r∈N, which implies that Bu∈Υ(M) iff ˜Bu∈Υ for every u∈Λ. Thus, B∈(Λ:Υ(M)) if and only if ˜B∈(Λ:Υ). □
Corollary 4.4. Consider the infinite matrices ˜B=(˜brs) and B=(brs) described with the relation (4.4). In that case, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the classes (Λ:Υ(M)) can be found in Table 3, where Λ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞,c,c0} and Υ∈{ℓ1,ℓp,ℓ∞}.

Compactness by Hausdorff measure of non-compactness
Measures of non-compactness play an important role in functional analysis. They are important tools in metric fixed point theory, the theory of operator equations in Banach spaces, and the characterizations of classes of compact operators. They are also applied in the studies of various kinds of differential and integral equations. For instance, the characterization of compact operators between BK-spaces benefits from Hausdorff measure of non-compactness.
Consider the normed space Λ and the unit sphere DΛ in Λ. The notation ‖u‖⋄Λ is expressed by
for a BK-space Λ⊃Ω and u=(us)∈ω for all finite sequences' space, Ω, provided that the series is finite and u∈Λβ.
Lemma 5.1. [20] The following are satisfied:
(ⅰ) ℓβ∞=ℓ1 and ‖u‖⋄ℓ∞=‖u‖ℓ1, ∀u∈ℓ1.
(ⅱ) ℓβ1=ℓ∞ and ‖u‖⋄ℓ1=‖u‖ℓ∞, ∀u∈ℓ∞.
(ⅲ) ℓβp=ℓq and ‖u‖⋄ℓp=‖u‖ℓq, ∀u∈ℓq.
The set of all bounded linear mappings from Λ to Υ is denoted by C(Λ:Υ).
Lemma 5.2. [20] There exists KB∈C(Λ:Υ) as KB(u)=Bu for BK-spaces Λ and Υ, as well as for all u∈Λ and B∈(Λ:Υ).
Lemma 5.3. [20] If B∈(Λ:Υ), then ‖KB‖=‖B‖(Λ:Υ)=supr∈N‖Br‖⋄Λ<∞ for Υ∈{c0,c,ℓ∞} and the BK-space Λ⊃Ω.
The Hausdorff measure of non-compactness of a bounded set P in the metric space Λ is stated with
where Q(uj,nj) is the open ball centred at uj and radius nj for each j=1,2,...,r. In-depth information on the subject can be obtained from [20] and its references.
Theorem 5.4. [25] Consider that P⊂ℓp is bounded and mapping Ψn:ℓp⟶ℓp stated by Ψn(u)=(u0,u1,u2,...,un,0,0,...) for all u=(us)∈ℓp, 1≤p<+∞ and n∈N. Then,
for the identity operator I on ℓp.
A linear mapping K is compact if (K(u)) has a convergent subsequence in Υ for all u=(us)∈ℓ∞∩Λ for the Banach spaces Λ and Υ.
The Hausdorff measure of non-compactness ‖K‖χ of K is expressed with ‖K‖χ=χ(K(DΛ)). In that case, K is compact iff ‖K‖χ=0.
The studies [3,22,23] can be given as examples of studies on sequence spaces considered in terms of compactness and Hausdorff measure of non-compactness relationship.
The following results will given for the sequences x=(xs) and y=(ys) which are elements of ω and are attached to each other by the relation
for all s∈N.
Lemma 5.5. Let us consider the sequence x=(xs)∈(ℓp(M))β for 1≤p≤∞. In that case, y=(ys)∈ℓq and
for all u=(us)∈ℓp(M).
Lemma 5.6. Let us consider the sequence y=(ys) described with relation (5.1). In that case, the following statements hold:
(ⅰ) ‖x‖⋄ℓ∞(M)=∑s|ys|<∞ for all x=(xs)∈(ℓ∞(M))β.
(ⅱ) ‖x‖⋄ℓ1(M)=sups|ys|<∞ for all x=(xs)∈(ℓ1(M))β.
(ⅲ) ‖x‖⋄ℓp(M)=(∑s|ys|q)1q<∞ for all x=(xs)∈(ℓp(M))β and 1<p<+∞.
Proof. Only a proof of the first part will be given because the other parts are similar.
(ⅰ) From Lemma 5.5, y=(ys)∈ℓ1 and (5.2) holds for x=(xs)∈(ℓ∞(M))β and for all u=(us)∈ℓ∞(M). Since ‖u‖ℓ∞(M)=‖ν‖ℓ∞ with (1.5), then u∈Dℓ∞(M) if and only if ν∈Dℓ∞. Thus, we can write the equality ‖x‖⋄ℓ∞(M)=supu∈Dℓ∞(M)|∑sxsus|=supν∈Dℓ∞|∑sysνs|=‖y‖⋄ℓ∞. By the aid of the Lemma 5.1, it follows that ‖x‖⋄ℓ∞(M)=‖y‖⋄ℓ∞=‖y‖ℓ1=∑s|ys|<∞. □
Lemma 5.7. [22] Considering the BK-space Λ⊃Ω;
(ⅰ) If B∈(Λ:ℓ∞), then 0≤‖KB‖χ≤lim supr‖Br‖⋄Λ and KB is compact if limr‖Br‖⋄Λ=0.
(ⅱ) If B∈(Λ:c0), then ‖KB‖χ=lim supr‖Br‖⋄Λ and KB is compact if and only if limr‖Br‖⋄Λ=0.
(ⅲ) If B∈(Λ:ℓ1), then
and KB is compact iff limj(supE∈Fj‖∑r∈EBr‖⋄Λ)=0, where F represents the family of all finite subsets of N and Fj is the subcollection of F consisting of subsets of N with elements that are greater than j.
The matrices H∗=(h∗rs) and B=(brs) connected with (4.2) will be considered in the continuation of the study under the assumption that the series is convergent.
Lemma 5.8. Let Υ⊂ω and B=(brs) be an infinite matrix. If B∈(ℓp(M):Υ), then H∗∈(ℓp:Υ) and Bu=H∗ν hold for all u∈ℓp(M) and 1≤p≤+∞.
Proof. It is obvious from Lemma 5.5. So, we omit it. □
Theorem 5.9. For 1<p<+∞:
(ⅰ) If B∈(ℓp(M):ℓ∞), then
and KB is compact if
(ⅱ) If B∈(ℓp(M):c0), then
and KB is compact iff
(ⅲ) If B∈(ℓp(M):ℓ1), then
and KB is compact iff
where ‖B‖(j)(ℓp(M):ℓ1)=supE∈Fj(∑s|∑r∈Eh∗rs|q)1q for all j∈N.
Proof. (ⅰ) Let B∈(ℓp(M):ℓ∞) and u=(us)∈ℓp(M). Since the series ∑sbrsus converges for each r∈N, Br∈(ℓp(M))β. From Lemma 5.6 (ⅲ), we reach that ‖Br‖⋄ℓp(M)=(∑s|h∗rs|q)1q. In that case, from Lemma 5.7 (ⅰ), we see that
and KB is compact if
(ⅱ) Suppose that B∈(ℓp(M):c0). Since ‖Br‖⋄ℓp(M)=(∑s|h∗rs|q)1q for each r∈N and from Lemma 5.7 (ⅱ), we see that
and KB is compact iff
(ⅲ) Let B∈(ℓp(M):ℓ1). From Lemma 5.6, ‖∑r∈EBr‖⋄ℓp(M)=‖∑r∈EH∗r‖⋄ℓq. Thus, from Lemma 5.7 (ⅲ), we see that
and KB is compact iff
□
Theorem 5.10. The following statements hold:
(ⅰ) If B∈(ℓ∞(M):ℓ∞), then
and KB is compact if
(ⅱ) If B∈(ℓ∞(M):c0), then
and KB is compact iff
(ⅲ) If B∈(ℓ∞(M):ℓ1), then
and KB is compact iff
where ‖B‖(j)(ℓ∞(M):ℓ1)=supE∈Fj(∑s|∑r∈Eh∗rs|).
Proof. This can be proven in the same manner as Theorem 5.9, so we omit the proof here. □
Theorem 5.11. (ⅰ) If B∈(ℓ1(M):ℓ∞), then
and KB is compact if
(ⅱ) If B∈(ℓ1(M):c0), then
and KB is compact iff
Proof. It can be seen this in a similar way to the proof of Theorem 5.9. □
Lemma 5.12. [22] If Λ has AK property or Λ=ℓ∞ and B∈(Λ:c), then
and KB is compact iff
where b=(bs) and bs=limrbrs.
Theorem 5.13. If B∈(ℓp(M):c) for 1<p<+∞, then
and KB is compact iff
Proof. Let B∈(ℓp(M):c). In that case, it is obtained that H∗∈(ℓp:c) by Lemma 5.8. By the aid of the Lemma 5.12, we reache that
This implies that, by Lemma 5.6 (ⅲ),
holds. Hence, we conclude with Lemma 5.12 that KB is compact iff
□
Theorem 5.14. If B∈(ℓ∞(M):c), in this case
and KB is compact iff
Proof. It can be seen this in a similar way to the proof of Theorem 5.13. □
Theorem 5.15. If B∈(ℓ1(M):c), then
and KB is compact iff
Proof. It can be seen this also in a similar way to the proof of Theorem 5.13. □

Conclusions
In this study, as an example of the application of matrix summability methods to Banach spaces, two new sequence spaces are constructed as the domains of the Motzkin matrix operator defined by Erdem et al. [10] in the sequence spaces ℓp and ℓ∞, some algebraic and topological properties of these spaces are revealed, their duals are calculated, some matrix classes concerning the new spaces are characterized and finally, the compactness criteria of some operators on these spaces are expressed with the help of the Hausdorff measure of non-compactness.
In our future work, we plan to act with the idea expressed above and obtain new normed and paranormed sequence spaces in this direction.
Creating infinite matrices with the help of special number sequences and thus obtaining new normed or paranormed sequence spaces and also examining some properties in these spaces (e.g., completeness, inclusion relations, Schauder basis, duals, matrix transformations, compact operators and core theorems) can be suggested as an idea to researchers who want to study in this field.
