Let $A={\left(a_{n,k}\right)}_{n,k\ge 1}$ be a non-negative matrix. Denote by $L_{v,p,q,F}\left(A\right)$ the supremum of those $L$ that satisfy the inequality $${\parallel Ax\parallel }_{v,q,F}\ge L{\parallel x\parallel }_{v,p,F},$$ where $x\ge 0$ and $x\in l_p(v,F)$ and also $v={\left(v_n\right)}_{n=1}^{\infty }$ is an increasing, non-negative sequence of real numbers. If $p=q$, we use $L_{v,p,F}\left(A\right)$ instead of $L_{v,p,p,F}\left(A\right)$. In this paper we obtain a Hardy type formula for $L_{v,p,q,F}\left(H_{\mu }\right)$, where $H_{\mu }$ is a Hausdorff matrix and $0<q\le p\le 1$. Another purpose of this paper is to establish a lower bound for $\parallel A_W^{NM}{\parallel }_{v,p,F}$, where $A_W^{NM}$ is the Nörlund matrix associated with the sequence $W={\left\{w_n\right\}}_{n=1}^{\infty }$ and $1<p<\infty$. Our results generalize some works of Bennett, Jameson and present authors....
