Tauberian theorems for sequences and the Katznelson--Tzafriri theorem

Abstract: In this note, we present an alternative proof of a quantified Tauberian theorem for vector-valued sequences first proved in \cite{Sei15_Tauberian}. The theorem relates the decay rate of a bounded sequence with properties of a certain boundary function. We present a slightly strengthened version of this result, and illustrate how it can be used to obtain quantified versions of the Katznelson--Tzafriri theorem as well as results on Ritt operators.
