In this paper, we introduce the notions of regularly -convergence, regularly -convergence, regularly -Cauchy and regularly -Cauchy double sequence of sets and investigate the relationship among them.
Throughout the paper, and denote the set of all positive integers and the set of all real numbers, respectively. The concept of convergence of real sequences has been extended to statistical convergence independently by Fast [15] and Schoenberg [30]. This concept was extended to the double sequences by Mursaleen and Edely [20].
The idea of -convergence was introduced by Kostyrko et al. [18] as a generalization of statistical convergence. Das et al. [6] introduced the concept of -convergence of double sequences in a metric space and studied some properties of this convergence. Tripathy and Tripathy [32] studied on -convergent and regularly -convergent double sequences. Dündar and Altay [7] introduced -convergence and regularly -convergence of double sequences. Also, Dündar [12] introduced regularly -convergence and regularly -Cauchy double sequences of functions. A lot of development have been made in this area after the works of [8–11, 31].
The concept of convergence of sequences of numbers has been extended by several authors to convergence of sequences of sets (see, [3–5, 37]). Nuray and Rhoades [22] extended the notion of convergence of sequences of sets to statistical convergence and gave some basic theorems. Nuray et. al. [24] studied Wijsman statistical convergence, Hausdorff statistical convergence and Wijsman statistical Cauchy double sequences of sets and investigate the relationship between them. Kişi and Nuray [17] introduced a new convergence notion, for sequences of sets, which is called Wijsman -convergence. Nuray et al. [25] studied -convergence and -Cauchy double sequences of sets.
Now, we recall the basic definitions and concepts (See [1–7, 32–37]).

Theorem
Let be an admissible ideal with property (AP) and be a strongly admissible ideal with property (AP2). If a double sequence {Amn} is -convergent, then {Amn} is -convergent.
Proof. Let {Amn} be -convergent. Then, {Amn} is -convergent and so, by Lemma 1.2, {Amn} is -convergent. Also, for every ɛ > 0 and each x ∈ X we have
for some Kn ∈ X and each , and
for some Lm ∈ X and each Now, for each x ∈ X put
for k ≥ 2, for some Kn ∈ X and for each . It is clear that Ai∩ Aj = ∅ for i ≠ j and for each . By the property (AP), there is a countable family of sets {B1, B2, …} in such that Aj △ Bj is a finite set for each and .
We prove that for some Kn and each ,
for and each x ∈ X. Let δ > 0 be given. Choose such that 1/k < δ. Then, for each x ∈ X we have
for some Kn ∈ X and each Since Aj △ Bj is a finite set for j ∈ {1, 2, …, k}, there exists such that
If m ≥ m0 and m ∉ B then
Thus, for every δ > 0 and each x ∈ X we have
for some Kn ∈ X and each This implies that for m ∈ M . Hence, for each x ∈ X we have
for some Kn ∈ X and each . Similarly, for the set
we have
for some Lm ∈ X and each for each x ∈ X Hence, {Amn} is -convergent.
Now, we give the definitions of -Cauchy sequence and -Cauchy sequence.

Theorem
If a double sequence {Amn} is -convergent, then {Amn} is -Cauchy double sequence.
Proof. Let {Amn} be -convergent. Then, {Amn} is -convergent and by Lemma 1.4, it is -Cauchy double sequence. Also, for every ɛ > 0 and each x ∈ X the following sets belong to the
for some Kn ∈ X and each and
for some Lm ∈ X and each , belong to the .
Since is an admissible ideal, for each x ∈ X the sets
for some Kn ∈ X and each
for some Lm ∈ X and each , are nonempty and belong to . For ( and kn > 0), we have
for some Kn ∈ X and each Now, for every ɛ > 0 and each x ∈ X we define the set
(), where . Let m ∈ B1 (ɛ). Then, for ( and kn > 0) we have
for some Kn ∈ X and each x ∈ X. This shows that
and so Hence, we have .
Similarly, for every ɛ > 0 and each x ∈ X, and for ( and lm > 0) we have
for some Lm ∈ X and each Therefore, for each x ∈ X, it can be seen that
Hence, we have and , and so {Amn} is -Cauchy double sequence.

for each n ∈ M2 and each
Theorem
If a double sequence {Amn} is -Cauchy then it is -Cauchy.
Proof. Since a double sequence {Amn} is -Cauchy, it is -Cauchy. We know that -Cauchy implies -Cauchy by Lemma 1.3. Also, since the double sequence {Amn} is -Cauchy, there exist the sets , and for every ɛ > 0 and each x ∈ X there exist and such that
for each m ∈ M1 and each
for each n ∈ M2, each and m, n, kn, lm ≥ N. Therefore, for and we have
