Let \(\Omega\) be a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^ n\) and \(\{u_ j\}\) a complete orthonormal system of functions in \(L^ 2 (\Omega)\) satisfying the equations \(-\Delta u_ j = \lambda_ j u_ j\), where \(\Delta\) is the Laplace operator and \(\lambda_ j \in \mathbb{C}\). Set \(S_ \mu (f,x) = \sum_{\rho_ j < \mu} f_ j u_ j (x)\) \((\mu>0)\), where \(f_ j\) are Fourier coefficients, and \(\rho_ j = \text{Re} \lambda_ j^{1/2} \geq 0\). The author proves three theorems. (1) Let \(f \in L_ p^ \alpha (\mathbb{R}^ 3)\), \(\alpha \geq 1\), \(\alpha p>3\), \(p \geq 1\), and \(\text{supp} f \subset \Omega\). Then \(S_ \mu (f,x) \to f\) uniformly on any compact subset of \(\Omega\) as \(\mu \to \infty\). (2) Let \(f \in L^ \alpha_ 2 (\mathbb{R}^ 3)\), \(\alpha \geq 1\), and \(f=0\) in a subdomain \(\Omega_ 0 \subset \Omega\). Then \(S_ \mu (f,x) \to 0\) uniformly in every compact subset of \(\Omega_ 0\) as \(\mu \to \infty\). (3) Let \(f \in L^ \alpha_ p (\mathbb{R}^ 3)\), \(\alpha > 3/2\), \(\alpha p > 3\), \(p \geq 1\), and \(\text{supp} f \subset \Omega\). Then the Fourier series of \(f\) with respect to \(\{u_ j\}\) converges absolutely and uniformly on every compact subset of \(\Omega\).
