Historical Note on Fourier Series
Despite the fact that the Fourier series bears the name of, they were first studied by.

himself made considerable use of this series during the course of his analysis of the behaviour of heat.

The first person to feel the need for a careful study of its convergence was.

In $1829$, gave the first satisfactory proof about the sums of Fourier series for certain types of function.

The criteria set by were extended and generalized by  in his $1854$ paper.
