On pointwise convergence of Fourier series of radial functions in several variables (Q4257623)

Suppose \(a>0\) and \(\phi\) is a function of bounded variation on \([0,a]\). Define for \(x\in\mathbb{R}^n\) \[ f_\phi (x):=\begin{cases}\phi(t) & \text{for} |x|=t<a,\\ 0 & \text{for} |x|>a\end{cases} \] and \[ F_\phi (x)=\sum_{m\in {\mathbb Z}^n} f_\phi (x+m). \] Then \(F_\phi\) is a bounded function of \(n\) variables, which has period 1 in each variable. The spherical Fourier sum of \(F_\phi\) is defined as \[ S_\lambda(F_\phi,x)=\sum_{|m|<\lambda}\widehat{F_\phi}(m) e^{i2\pi mx}\quad (\lambda>0) \] where \[ \widehat{F_\phi}(m) =\int_{(-{1\over 2}, {1\over 2})^n} F_\phi(x)e^{-i2\pi mx} dx,\quad m\in {\mathbb Z}^n. \] The author gives pointwise convergence theorems for \(S_\lambda(F_\phi,x)\) as \(\lambda\to 0\) in cases \(1\leq n\leq 4\), \(n=5\) and \(n=6\), respectively. These theorems extend the results of the author's previous paper in which \(\phi \) is the indicator function of the interval \([0,a]\) [see \textit{S. Kuratsubo}, Sci. Rep. Hirosaka Univ. 43, No. 2, 199-208 (1996; Zbl 0912.11039)].
