Carleson has proved that the Fourier series of functions belonging to the class L2 converge almost everywhere.

Improving his method, Hunt proved that the Fourier series of functions belonging to the class Lp (p > 1) converge almost everywhere. On the other hand, Kolmogoroff proved that there is an integrable function whose Fourier series diverges almost everywhere. We shall generalise Kolmogoroff's Theorem as follows: There is a function belonging to the class L(logL)p (p > 0) whose Fourier series diverges almost everywhere. The following problem is still open: whether “almost everywhere” in the last theorem can be replaced by “everywhere” or not. This problem is affirmatively answered for the class L by Kolmogoroff and for the class L(log logL)p (0 < p < 1) by Tandori.
