In this article, a comprehensive study is made on the continuity, compactness, and spectrum of the lower triangular terraced matrix, introduced by H. C. Rhaly, Jr. [Houston J. Math. 15(1): 137-146, 1989], acting on the weighted null sequence spaces with bounded, strictly positive weights. Several spectral subdivisions such as point spectrum, residual spectrum, and continuous spectrum are also discussed. In addition, a new class of operator ideal $\chi_{c_0(r)}^{(s)}$ associated to the Rhaly operator on weighted $c_0$ space is defined using the concept of $s$-number and it is proved that under certain condition, $\chi_{c_0(r)}^{(s)}$ forms a quasi-Banach closed operator ideal. |
