There exist continuous functions whose Fourier series converges pointwise but not uniformly. [8] However, the Fourier series of a continuous function need not converge pointwise. Perhaps the easiest proof uses the non-boundedness of Dirichlet's kernel in L 1 (T) and the Banach–Steinhaus uniform boundedness principle.
The theorems proving that a Fourier series is a valid representation of any periodic function (that satisfies the Dirichlet conditions), and informal variations of them that don't specify the convergence conditions, are sometimes referred to generically as Fourier's theorem or the Fourier theorem.
This was disproved by Paul du Bois-Reymond, who showed in 1876 that there is a continuous function whose Fourier series diverges at one point. The almost-everywhere convergence of Fourier series for L 2 functions was postulated by N. N. Luzin , and the problem was known as Luzin's conjecture (up until its proof by Carleson (1966)).
Wiener–Lévy theorem is a theorem in Fourier analysis, which states that a function of an absolutely convergent Fourier series has an absolutely convergent Fourier series under some conditions. The theorem was named after Norbert Wiener and Paul Lévy. Norbert Wiener first proved Wiener's 1/f theorem, [1] see Wiener's theorem. It states that ...

A version holds for Fourier series as well: if is an integrable function on a bounded interval, then the Fourier coefficients ^ of tend to 0 as . This follows by extending f {\displaystyle f} by zero outside the interval, and then applying the version of the Riemann–Lebesgue lemma on the entire real line.
Harmonic analysis is a branch of mathematics concerned with investigating the connections between a function and its representation in frequency.The frequency representation is found by using the Fourier transform for functions on unbounded domains such as the full real line or by Fourier series for functions on bounded domains, especially periodic functions on finite intervals.
