This paper presents the notion of𝑆𝐿𝜆(𝐼)-asymptotically statistical equivalence, which is a natural combination of asymptotic
𝐼-equivalence, and𝜆-statistical equivalence for sequences of sets. We find its relations to 𝐼-asymptotically statistical convergence,
strong𝜆𝐼-asymptotically equivalence, and strong Cesaro𝐼-asymptotically equivalence for sequences of sets.
1. Introduction and Background
Let 𝜆 = (𝜆𝑛) be a nondecreasing sequence of positive
numbers tending to∞, such that 𝜆𝑛+1 ≤ 𝜆𝑛 + 1, 𝜆1 = 1.
The generalized de la Vallee-Poussin mean is defined by
𝑡𝑛(𝑥) = 𝜆1
𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑
𝑥𝑘, (1)
where𝐼𝑛= [𝑛 − 𝜆𝑛+ 1, 𝑛].
A sequence𝑥 = (𝑥𝑘) is said to be (𝑉, 𝜆)-summable to a
number𝐿 if
lim
𝑛 → ∞𝑡𝑛(𝑥) = 𝐿. (2)
If 𝜆𝑛 = 𝑛, then (𝑉, 𝜆)-summability reduces to (𝐶,
1)-summability. We write [𝐶, 1] = {𝑥 = (𝑥𝑛) : ∃𝐿 ∈ R, lim𝑛 → ∞1𝑛 𝑛 ∑ 𝑘=1𝑥𝑘− 𝐿 = 0} , [𝑉, 𝜆] ={{ { 𝑥 = (𝑥𝑛) : ∃𝐿 ∈ R, lim𝑛 → ∞ 1 𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑𝑥𝑘− 𝐿 = 0 } } } , (3)
for the sets of sequences𝑥 = (𝑥𝑘), which are strongly Cesaro
summable and strongly(𝑉, 𝜆)-summable to 𝐿, that is, 𝑥𝑘 →
𝐿[𝐶, 1] and 𝑥𝑘 → 𝐿[𝑉, 𝜆], respectively. Let Λ denote the set
of all nondecreasing sequences𝜆 = (𝜆𝑛) of positive numbers
tending to∞, such that 𝜆𝑛+1≤ 𝜆𝑛and𝜆1= 1.
Statistical convergence of sequences of points was intro-duced by Fast (see [1]), and under different names, it has been discussed in number theory, trigonometric series, and summability. In 1993, Marouf presented definitions for asymptotically equivalent and asymptotic regular matrices. In 2003, Patterson extended these concepts by presenting an asymptotically statistical equivalent analog of these def-initions and natural regularity conditions for nonnegative
summability matrices. Mursalen defined𝜆-statistical
conver-gence by using the𝜆 sequence. He denoted this new method
by𝑆𝜆, and found its relation to statistical convergence,[𝐶,
1]-summability, and[𝑉, 𝜆]-summability (see [2]). Savas¸
intro-duced and studied the concepts of strongly 𝜆-summability
and 𝜆-statistical convergence for fuzzy numbers (see [3]).
He also presented asymptotically 𝜆-statistical equivalent
sequences of fuzzy numbers (see [4]). Kostyrko et al. (see [5,
6]) introduced the concept of𝐼-convergence of sequences in a
metric space and studied some properties of this convergence. In addition to these definitions, natural inclusion theorems are also presented. The concept of convergence of sequences of points has been extended by several authors to convergence
of sequences of sets. One of these extensions that we will consider in this paper is Wijsman convergence. The concept of Wijsman statistical convergence is an implementation of the concept of statistical convergence presented by Nuray and Rhoades (see [7]).
Definition 1. The sequence𝑥 = (𝑥𝑘) is said to be statistically
convergent to the number𝐿 if for every 𝜀 > 0,
lim 𝑛 → ∞
1
𝑛{𝑘 ≤ 𝑛 : 𝑥𝑛− 𝐿 ≥𝜀} = 0. (4)
In this case one writes𝑠𝑡 − lim 𝑥𝑘= 𝐿 (see [8]).
Definition 2. A family of sets𝐼 ⊆ 2Nis called an ideal if and
only if
(i)0 ∈ 𝐼,
(ii) for each𝐴, 𝐵 ∈ 𝐼 one has 𝐴 ∪ 𝐵 ∈ 𝐼,
(iii) for each𝐴 ∈ 𝐼 and each 𝐵 ⊆ 𝐴 one has 𝐵 ∈ 𝐼 (see [5]).
An ideal is called nontrivial ifN ∉ 𝐼, and nontrivial ideal is
called admissible if{𝑛} ∈ 𝐼 for each 𝑛 ∈ N.
Definition 3. A family of sets𝐹 ⊆ 2Nis a filter inN if and only
if
(i)0 ∉ 𝐼,
(ii) for each𝐴, 𝐵 ∈ 𝐹 one has 𝐴 ∩ 𝐵 ∈ 𝐹,
(iii) for each𝐴 ∈ 𝐹 and each 𝐵 ⊇ 𝐴 one has 𝐵 ∈ 𝐹 (see
[5]).
Proposition 4. 𝐼 is a nontrivial ideal in N if and only if
𝐹 = 𝐹 (𝐼) = {𝑀 = N \ 𝐴 : 𝐴 ∈ 𝐼} , (5)
is a filter inN (see [5]).
Definition 5. Let𝐼 be a nontrivial ideal of subsets of N, and let
(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. A sequence {𝑥𝑛}𝑛∈Nof elements of𝑋
is said to be𝐼-convergent to 𝐿. Therefore 𝐿 = 𝐼 − lim𝑛 → ∞𝑥𝑛
if and only if for each𝜀 > 0 the set
𝐴 (𝜀) = {𝑛 ∈ N : 𝑥𝑛− 𝐿 ≥ 𝜀} , (6)
belongs to 𝐼. The number 𝐿 is called the 𝐼 limit of the
sequence𝑥 = (𝑥𝑛)𝑛∈N∈ 𝑋 (see [5]).
Definition 6. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For any non-empty
closed subsets𝐴, 𝐴𝑘⊆ 𝑋, one says that the sequence {𝐴𝑘} is
Wijsman convergent to𝐴:
lim
𝑘 → ∞𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) = 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) , (7)
for each𝑥 ∈ 𝑋. In this case one writes 𝑊 − lim𝑘 → ∞𝐴𝑘 = 𝐴
(see [9,10]).
As an example, consider the following sequence of circles
in the(𝑥, 𝑦)-plane:
𝐴𝑘 = {(𝑥, 𝑦) : 𝑥2+ 𝑦2+ 2𝑘𝑥 = 0} . (8)
As𝑘 → ∞ the sequence is Wijsman convergent to the 𝑦-axis
𝐴 = {(𝑥, 𝑦) : 𝑥 = 0}.
Definition 7. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For any non-empty
closed subsets𝐴, 𝐴𝑘⊆ 𝑋, one says that the sequence {𝐴𝑘} is
Wijsman statistically convergent to𝐴 if for 𝜀 > 0 and for each
𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, lim 𝑛 → ∞
1
𝑛{𝑘 ≤ 𝑛 : 𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥𝜀} = 0. (9)
In this case one writes𝑠𝑡 − lim𝑊𝐴𝑘 = 𝐴 or 𝐴𝑘 → 𝐴(𝑊𝑆)
(see [7]).
𝑊𝑆 := {{𝐴𝑘} : 𝑠𝑡 − lim𝑊𝐴𝑘= 𝐴} , (10)
where𝑊𝑆 denotes the set of Wijsman statistical convergence
sequences.
Also, the concept of bounded sequence for sequences of
sets was given by Nuray and Rhoades (see [7]). Let(𝑋, 𝜌) be a
metric space. For any non-empty closed subsets𝐴𝑘of𝑋, we
say that the sequence{𝐴𝑘} is bounded if sup𝑘𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) < ∞
for each𝑥 ∈ 𝑋.
Definition 8. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For any non-empty
closed subsets𝐴, 𝐴𝑘 ⊆ 𝑋, we say that the sequence {𝐴𝑘}
is Wijsman Cesaro summable to 𝐴 if {𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘)} is Cesaro
summable to{𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴)}; that is, for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋,
lim 𝑛 → ∞ 1 𝑛 𝑛 ∑ 𝑘=1 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) = 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) , (11)
and one says that the sequence {𝐴𝑘} is Wijsman strongly
Cesaro summable to𝐴 if {𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘)} is strongly summable to
{𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴)}; that is, for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, lim 𝑛 → ∞ 1 𝑛 𝑛 ∑ 𝑘=1𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) = 0, (12) (see [7]).
Definition 9. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For any non-empty
closed subsets 𝐴𝑘, 𝐵𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋 such that 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) > 0 and
𝑑(𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) > 0 for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, one says that the sequences
{𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are asymptotically equivalent (Wijsman sense)
if for each𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, lim 𝑘 → ∞ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) = 1, (13) (denoted by𝐴𝑘 ∼ 𝐵𝑘) (see [11]).
As an example, consider the following sequences of circles
in the(𝑥, 𝑦)-plane. 𝐴𝑘 = {(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 𝑥2+ 𝑦2+ 2𝑘𝑦 = 0} , 𝐵𝑘= {(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 𝑥2+ 𝑦2− 2𝑘𝑦 = 0} . (14) Since lim 𝑘 → ∞ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) = 1, (15)
the sequences{𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are asymptotically equivalent
Definition 10. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For non-empty
closed subsets 𝐴𝑘, 𝐵𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋 such that 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) > 0 and
𝑑(𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) > 0 for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, one says that the sequences {𝐴𝑘}
and{𝐵𝑘} are asymptotically statistically equivalent (Wijsman
sense) of multiple𝐿 provided that for every 𝜀 > 0 and for each
𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, lim 𝑛 → ∞ 1 𝑛{𝑘 ≤ 𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}= 0, (16)
(denoted by𝐴𝑘 𝑊𝑆𝐿∼ 𝐵𝑘) and simply asymptotically
statisti-cally equivalent (Wijsman sense) if𝐿 = 1 (see [11]).
2. Main Results
Definition 11 (see [12]). Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space and let
𝐼 ⊆ 2N be a proper ideal in N. For any non-empty closed
subsets𝐴, 𝐴𝑘⊂ 𝑋, we say that the sequence {𝐴𝑘} is Wijsman
𝐼-convergent to 𝐴, if for each 𝜀 > 0 and for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, the set
𝐴 (𝑥, 𝜀) = {𝑘 ∈ N : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥𝜀} , (17)
belongs to𝐼. In this case one writes 𝐼𝑊−lim 𝐴𝑘= 𝐴 or 𝐴𝑘 →
𝐴(𝐼𝑊), and the set of Wijsman 𝐼-convergent sequences of sets
will be denoted by
𝐼𝑊= {{𝐴𝑘} : {𝑘 ∈ N : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥𝜀} ∈ 𝐼} . (18)
As an example, consider the following sequence. Let𝑋 = R2,
and let{𝐴𝑘} be the following sequence:
𝐴𝑘 = {{(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 𝑥2+ 𝑦2− 2𝑘𝑦 = 0} if 𝑘 ̸= 𝑛2
{(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 𝑦 = −1} if𝑘 = 𝑛2, (19)
and𝐴 = {(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2 : 𝑦 = 0}. The sequence {𝐴𝑘} is not
Wijsman convergent to the set𝐴. But, if we take 𝐼 = 𝐼𝑑, then
{𝐴𝑘} is Wijsman 𝐼-convergent to set 𝐴, where 𝐼𝑑is the ideal
of sets that have zero density.
Definition 12. Let (𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For any
non-empty closed subsets𝐴, 𝐴𝑘 ⊆ 𝑋, we say that the sequence
{𝐴𝑘} is said to be Wijsman 𝜆-statistically convergent or 𝑊𝑆𝜆
-convergent to𝐴 if for every 𝜀 > 0 and for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋,
lim 𝑛 → ∞
1
𝜆𝑛{𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥𝜀} = 0. (20)
In this case one writes𝑆𝜆−lim𝑊𝐴𝑘 = 𝐴, or {𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴(𝑊𝑆𝜆)
and,
𝑊𝑆𝜆:= {{𝐴𝑘} : 𝐴 ⊆ 𝑋, 𝑊𝑆𝜆− lim 𝐴𝑘= 𝐴} . (21)
If𝜆𝑛= 𝑛, then Wijsman 𝜆-statistical convergence is the same
as Wijsman statistical convergence for the sequences of sets.
Definition 13. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For any non-empty
closed subsets𝐴, 𝐴𝑘 ⊆ 𝑋, we say that the sequence {𝐴𝑘} is
said to be Wijsman strongly(𝑉, 𝜆) summable to 𝐴 if for every
𝜀 > 0 and for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, lim
𝑛 → ∞ 1
𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) = 0. (22)
In this case one writes{𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴[𝑉, 𝜆].
If 𝜆𝑛 = 𝑛, then [𝑉, 𝜆]-summability reduces to [𝐶,
1]-summability for sequences of sets.
Theorem 14. Let 𝜆 ∈ Λ, (𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For any
non-empty closed subsets𝐴, 𝐴𝑘⊆ 𝑋, then
(i){𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴[𝑉, 𝜆] ⇒ {𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴(𝑊𝑆𝜆) and the
inclusion[𝑉, 𝜆] ⫅ (𝑊𝑆𝜆) is proper for sequences of sets,
(ii) if{𝐴𝑘} is bounded (i.e., {𝐴𝑘} ∈ 𝐿∞) and {𝐴𝑘} →
𝐴(𝑊𝑆𝜆), then {𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴[𝑉, 𝜆],
(iii)𝑊𝑆𝜆∩ 𝐿∞= [𝑉, 𝜆] ∩ 𝐿∞,
where𝐿∞denotes the set of bounded sequences of sets.
Proof. (i) Let𝜀 > 0 and {𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴[𝑉, 𝜆]. One has
∑ 𝑘∈𝐼𝑛 𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥ ∑ 𝑘∈𝐼𝑛 |𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘)−𝑑(𝑥,𝐴)|≥𝜀 𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥ 𝜀 ⋅ {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥𝜀}. (23) Therefore{𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴[𝑉, 𝜆] ⇒ {𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴(𝑊𝑆𝜆).
The following example shows that (𝑊𝑆𝜆) ⫋ [𝑉, 𝜆] for
sequences of sets:
𝐴𝑘= {{𝑘} , for 𝑛 − [√𝜆𝑛] + 1 ≤ 𝑘 ≤ 𝑛,
{0} , otherwise. (24)
Then{𝐴𝑘} ∉ 𝐿∞and for every𝜀 (0 < 𝜀 ≤ 1),
1
𝜆𝑛{𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, {0}) ≥𝜀}
= [√𝜆𝑛]
𝜆𝑛 → 0, as 𝑛 → ∞,
(25)
that is,{𝐴𝑘} → {0} (𝑊𝑆𝜆). On the other hand,
1
𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, {0}) 0, as 𝑛 → ∞, (26)
(ii) Suppose that{𝐴𝑘} is bounded and {𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴(𝑊𝑆𝜆).
Then there is a𝑀 such that |𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴)| ≤ 𝑀 for all
𝑘. Given 𝜀 > 0, one has 1 𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) =𝜆1 𝑛 𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ |𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘)−𝑑(𝑥,𝐴)|≥𝜀 𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) +𝜆1 𝑛 𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ |𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘)−𝑑(𝑥,𝐴)|<𝜀 𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≤𝑀 𝜆𝑛 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) − 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴) ≥𝜀} + 𝜀, (27)
which implies that{𝐴𝑘} → 𝐴[𝑉, 𝜆].
(iii) This immediately follows from (i) and (ii).
Definition 15. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space, and let 𝐼 be an
admissible ideal. For non-empty closed subsets𝐴𝑘, 𝐵𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋
such that 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) > 0 and 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) > 0 for each 𝑥 ∈
𝑋, one says that the sequences {𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are said to
be asymptotically Wijsman𝐼-equivalent of multiple 𝐿 if for
every𝜀 > 0 and for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋,
{𝑘 ∈ N :
𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘)
𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀} ∈ 𝐼. (28)
This will be denoted by𝐴𝑘𝐼𝑊∼ 𝐵𝑘.
Definition 16. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space, and let 𝐼 be an
admissible ideal. For non-empty closed subsets𝐴𝑘, 𝐵𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋
such that𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) > 0 and 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) > 0 for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋,
one says that the sequences {𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are said to be
strong Cesaro𝐼-asymptotically equivalent (Wijsman sense)
of multiple𝐿 if every 𝜀 > 0 and for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋,
{𝑛 ∈ N : 1 𝑛 𝑛 ∑ 𝑘=1 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥ 𝜀} ∈ 𝐼. (29)
This will be denoted by𝐴𝑘𝐶

Definition 17. Let (𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For non-empty
closed subsets 𝐴𝑘, 𝐵𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋 such that 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) > 0 and
𝑑(𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) > 0 for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, one says that the sequences
{𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are Wijsman 𝐼-asymptotically statistically
equivalent of multiple𝐿 if for every 𝜀, 𝛿 > 0 and for each
𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, {𝑛 ∈ N :𝑛1 {𝑘 ≤ 𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}≥𝛿} ∈ 𝐼. (30)
This will be denoted by𝐴𝑘𝑆
𝐿(𝐼𝑊)
∼ 𝐵𝑘.
Example 18. Let𝐼 ⊆ 2Nbe a proper ideal inN, and let (𝑋, 𝑑)
be a metric space, then𝐴, 𝐴𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋 are non-empty closed
subsets. Let𝑋 = R2,{𝐴𝑘}, {𝐵𝑘} be the following sequences:
𝐴𝑘 ={{ { {(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 0≤ 𝑥≤𝑛, 0≤𝑦≤1 𝑛⋅ 𝑥} , if, 𝑘 ̸= 𝑛2, {0, 0} , otherwise, 𝐵𝑘 = {{(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 0 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 𝑛, 0 ≤ 𝑦 ≤ −1𝑛⋅ 𝑥} , if, 𝑘 ̸= 𝑛2, {0, 0} , otherwise. (31) If we take𝐼 = 𝐼𝑑we have {𝑘 ∈ N : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 1≥𝜀} ∈ 𝐼. (32)
Thus, the sequences {𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are asymptotically
𝐼-equivalent (Wijsman sense); that is,𝐴𝑘𝐼𝑊1
∼ 𝐵𝑘, where𝐼𝑑is the
ideal of sets that have zero density.
Example 19. Let𝐼 ⊆ 2Nbe a proper ideal inN and let, (𝑋, 𝑑) be
a metric space, then𝐴, 𝐴𝑘⊂ 𝑋 are non-empty closed subsets.
Let𝑋 = R2,{𝐴𝑘}, {𝐵𝑘} be the following sequences:
𝐴𝑘={{ { {(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 𝑥2+ (𝑦 − 1)2= 1 𝑘} , if 𝑘 ̸= 𝑛2 {0, 0} , otherwise, 𝐵𝑘= { { { {(𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ R2: 𝑥2+ (𝑦 + 1)2= 1𝑘} , if 𝑘 ̸= 𝑛2 {0, 0} , otherwise. (33) If we take𝐼 = 𝐼𝑑we have {𝑘 ∈ N : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 1 ≥𝜀} ∈ 𝐼. (34)
Thus, the sequences {𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are asymptotically
𝐼-equivalent (Wijsman sense); that is,𝐴𝑘 𝐼
1 𝑊
∼ 𝐵𝑘, where𝐼𝑑 is
the ideal of sets which have zero density.
Definition 20. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For non-empty
closed subsets 𝐴𝑘, 𝐵𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋 such that 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) > 0 and
𝑑(𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) > 0 for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, one says that the sequences
{𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are strongly 𝜆𝐼-asymptotically equivalent
(Wijsman sense) of multiple𝐿 if for every 𝜀 > 0 and for each
𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, { { { 𝑛 ∈ N : 1 𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼∑𝑛 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥ 𝜀 } } } ∈ 𝐼. (35)
This will be denoted by𝐴𝑘𝑉

𝜆∼ 𝐵(𝐼𝑊)
Definition 21. Let(𝑋, 𝑑) be a metric space. For non-empty
closed subsets 𝐴𝑘, 𝐵𝑘 ⊂ 𝑋 such that 𝑑(𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) > 0 and
𝑑(𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) > 0 for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋, one says that the sequences
{𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are 𝐼-asymptotically 𝜆-statistically equivalent
(Wijsman sense) of multiple𝐿, provided that for every 𝜀, 𝛿 >
0 and for each 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋,
{𝑛 ∈ N :𝜆1 𝑛 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}≥𝛿} ∈ 𝐼. (36)
This will be denoted by𝐴𝑘𝑆

Theorem 22. Let 𝜆 ∈ Λ and let 𝐼 be an admissible ideal in N.
If𝐴𝑘𝑉 𝐿 𝜆∼ 𝐵(𝐼𝑊) 𝑘, then𝐴𝑘 𝑆𝐿 𝜆(𝐼𝑊)∼ 𝐵 𝑘.
Proof. Assume that𝐴𝑘𝑉
𝐿 𝜆∼ 𝐵(𝐼𝑊) 𝑘and𝜀 > 0. Then, ∑ 𝑘∈𝐼𝑛 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥ 𝑘∈𝐼∑ 𝑛 |𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘)−𝑑(𝑥,𝐴)|≥𝜀 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 ≥ 𝜀 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}, (37) and so, 1 𝜀𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 ≥ 𝜆1 𝑛 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}. (38)
Then for any𝛿 > 0,
{𝑛 ∈ N :𝜆1 𝑛 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}≥𝛿} ⊆{{ { 𝑛 ∈ N : 1 𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼∑𝑛 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀𝛿 } } } . (39)
Since right hand belongs to𝐼, then left hand also belongs to
𝐼, and this completes the proof.
Theorem 23. Let 𝜆 ∈ Λ and let 𝐼 be an admissible ideal in N.
If{𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are bounded and 𝐴𝑘𝑆
𝐿 𝜆(𝐼𝑊) ∼ 𝐵𝑘, then𝐴𝑘𝑉 𝐿 𝜆∼(𝐼𝑊) 𝐵𝑘.
Proof. Let{𝐴𝑘}, {𝐵𝑘} be bounded sequences and let 𝐴𝑘𝑆
𝐿
𝜆(𝐼𝑊)∼
𝐵𝑘. Then there is an𝑀 such that
𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘)
𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≤ 𝑀, (40)
for all𝑘. For each 𝜀 > 0,
1 𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 = 1 𝜆𝑛 𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ |𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘)−𝑑(𝑥,𝐴)|≥𝜀 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 + 1 𝜆𝑛 𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ |𝑑(𝑥,𝐴𝑘)−𝑑(𝑥,𝐴)|<𝜀 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 ≤ 𝑀 1 𝜆𝑛{𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥ 𝜀 2}+ 𝜀 2. (41) Then, { { { 𝑛 ∈ N : 1 𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼∑𝑛 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥ 𝜀 } } } ⊆ {𝑛 ∈ N : 1 𝜆𝑛 × {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥ 𝜀 2}≥ 𝜀 2𝑀} ∈ 𝐼. (42) Therefore,𝐴𝑘𝑉 𝐿 𝜆∼ 𝐵(𝐼𝑊) 𝑘.
The following example shows that if{𝐴𝑘} and {𝐵𝑘} are not
bounded, thenTheorem 23cannot be true.
Example 24. Take𝐿 = 1 and define {𝐴𝑘} to be,
𝐴𝑘= {{𝑘} , 𝑘 = 𝑘𝑟−1+ 1, 𝑘𝑟−1+ 2, . . . , 𝑘𝑟−1+ [√𝜆𝑛]
{1} , otherwise,
(43)
where⌊⋅⌋ denotes the greatest integer function and 𝐵𝑘 = {1}
for all𝑘. Note that {𝐴𝑘} is not bounded. Then 𝐴𝑘 𝑆

Theorem 25. Let 𝜆 ∈ Λ and let 𝐼 be an admissible ideal in N.
If𝐴𝑘𝑉 𝐿 𝜆∼ 𝐵(𝐼𝑊) 𝑘, then𝐴𝑘 𝐶𝐿 1∼ 𝐵(𝐼𝑊) 𝑘.
Proof. Assume that𝐴𝑘𝑉 𝐿 𝜆∼ 𝐵(𝐼) 𝑘and𝜀 > 0. Then, 1 𝑛 𝑛 ∑ 𝑘=1 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 = 1 𝑛 𝑛−𝜆𝑛 ∑ 𝑘=1 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿+ 1 𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 ≤ 1 𝜆𝑛 𝑛−𝜆𝑛 ∑ 𝑘=1 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿+ 1 𝜆𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 ≤ 𝜆2 𝑛𝑘∈𝐼𝑛∑ 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿, (44) and so, {𝑛 ∈ N : 1𝑛∑𝑛 𝑘=1 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀} ⊆ {𝑛 ∈ N : 𝜆1 𝑛 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥ 𝜀 2} ∈ 𝐼. (45) Hence𝐴𝑘𝐶 𝐿 1(𝐼𝑊) ∼ 𝐵𝑘.
Theorem 26. If lim inf 𝜆𝑛/𝑛 > 0, then 𝐴𝑘 𝑆𝐿(𝐼𝑊)∼ 𝐵𝑘implies
𝐴𝑘𝑆𝐿𝜆(𝐼𝑊)∼ 𝐵
𝑘.
Proof. Assume that lim inf(𝜆𝑛/𝑛) > 0 and there exists a 𝛿 > 0
such that𝜆𝑛/𝑛 ≥𝛿 for sufficiently large 𝑛. For given 𝜀 > 0 one
has, 1 𝑛{𝑘 ≤ 𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 ≥𝜀} ⊇ 1 𝑛{𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀} . (46) Therefore, 1 𝑛{𝑘 ≤ 𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀} ≥ 1𝑛 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿 ≥𝜀} ≥ 𝜆𝑛 𝑛 1 𝜆𝑛{𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀} ≥ 𝛿1 𝜆𝑛 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}; (47)
then for any𝜂 > 0 we get
{𝑛 ∈ N : 𝜆1 𝑛 {𝑘 ∈ 𝐼𝑛: 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}≥𝜂} ⊆ {𝑛 ∈ N : 1 𝑛{𝑘 ≤ 𝑛 : 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐴𝑘) 𝑑 (𝑥, 𝐵𝑘) − 𝐿≥𝜀}≥𝜂𝛿} ∈ 𝐼, (48) and this completes the proof.
