 Bounded partial sums need not be Cesàro summable

Construct partial sums $s_n$ from alternating blocks of zero and one, with lengths $1,3,9,27,\dots$. Block $j$, beginning with $j=0$, has length $3^j$ and value zero when $j$ is even, one when $j$ is odd. Define a series by $a_0=s_0$ and $a_n=s_n-s_{n-1}$ for $n\ge 1$; the telescoping series identity recovers these chosen partial sums. They remain in $[0,1]$.

At the end of odd block $2m+1$, the Cesàro mean is exactly $3/4$. At the end of even block $2m$, it isThese two subsequences have different subsequential limits, so the series has no first-order Cesàro sum. A later block remains a substantial fraction of everything averaged so far. Boundedness alone therefore does not ensure a stable average.
