Dini–Lipschitz criterion

In mathematics, the Dini–Lipschitz criterion is a sufficient condition for the Fourier series of a periodic function to converge uniformly at all real numbers. It was introduced by Dini (1872), as a strengthening of a weaker criterion introduced by Lipschitz (1864). The criterion states that the Fourier series of a periodic function f converges uniformly on the real line if

$\lim _{{\delta \rightarrow 0^{+}}}\omega (\delta ,f)\log(\delta )=0$

where ω is the modulus of continuity of f with respect to δ.
