Abstract
In this paper our primary interest is in developing further insight into convergence properties of multiple trigonometric series, with emphasis on the problem of uniqueness of trigonometric series. Let be a subset of positive (Lebesgue) measure of the dimensional torus. The principal result is that the convergence of a trigonometric series on forces the boundedness of the partial sums almost everywhere on where the system of partial sums is the one associated with the system of all rectangles situated symmetrically about the origin in the lattice plane with sides parallel to the axes. If has a countable complement, then the partial sums are bounded at every point of . This result implies a uniqueness theorem for double trigonometric series, namely, that if a double trigonometric series converges unrestrictedly rectangularly to zero everywhere, then all the coefficients are zero. Although uniqueness is still conjectural for dimensions greater than two, we obtain partial results and indicate possible lines of attack for this problem.Keywords
