INTRODUCTION
Let too, c and co be the sets of all bounded, convergent and null squences of
respectively. Let w denote the set of all complex sequences and 1 denote the set of all convergem and
absolutely convergent series.
Let z be any sequence and Y be any subset of w. Then

In this paper we extend the space ,5, (A) to ,5 (p, A) in the same manner as co, c, oo were extended
co(v), c(.v), eoo(p), respectively (cf. [2],[3],[4]). We also determine the a- and/-duals of our new
sequence space. Let p (Pk) be an arbitrary sequence of positive reals and r >_ 1, then we define
