The paper proves that the spherical partial sums of the Fourier series of the indicator (characteristic) function of a ball inside the cube of width \(2\pi\) converge at the center of the ball if and only if the dimension is strictly less than three. In fact the paper shows that (i) If \(0<a\leq\pi\), \(p\geq 3\), then the \(p\)-dimensional Fourier series of the indicator function of the ball \(| {\mathbf x} | \leq a\) diverges at the center \({\mathbf x}=0\). (ii) Let \(f(x_ 1, x_ 2, x_ 3) = F(r)\) for \(0 \leq r \leq a\) and \(f(x_ 1,x_ 2,x_ 3)=0\) elsewhere, where \(0<a \leq \pi\), \(r = \sqrt {x^ 2_ 1 + x^ 2_ 2 + x^ 2_ 3}\) and \(F\) is a smooth function on the interval \([0,a]\). If \(F(a)=0\) then the Fourier series converges for all \({\mathbf x} \in {\mathbf T}^ 3\). Conversely, if the Fourier series converges at \({\mathbf x} = {\mathbf 0}\) then \(F(a)=0\).
