The Cesàro summation is an alternative means of assigning a sum to an infinite series. If the series converges in the usual sense to a sum A, then the series is also Cesàro summable and has Cesàro sum A. The significance of Cesàro summation is that a series which does not converge may still have a well-defined Cesàro sum.
