We show that for a nonnegative monotonic sequence {c k } the condition c k k → 0 is sufficient for the series ∞ k=1 c k sin k α x to converge uniformly on any bounded set for α ∈ (0, 2), and for any odd α it is sufficient for it to converge uniformly on the whole of R. Moreover, the latter assertion still holds if we replace k α by any polynomial in odd powers with rational coefficients. On the other hand, in the case of even α it is necessary that ∞ k=1 c k < ∞ for the above series to converge at the point π/2 or at 2π/3. As a consequence, we obtain uniform convergence criteria. Furthermore, the results for natural numbers α remain true for sequences in the more general class RBVS.Bibliography: 17 titles.
