Abstract

A new method for asymptotic summation of linear systems of difference equations is proposed and studied. It is based on the introduction of a certain summation equation that pinpoints sufficient conditions for asymptotic summation. These conditions serve as a framework from which new and old theorems follow. In particular the analogues of the fundamental theorems of Levinson and Hartman and Wintner are shown to follow from one and the same framework. Examples are given that are not amenable to other techniques.
