In this paper the absolute
convergence of the Fourier series is studied for the class of the function f with the
modulus of continuity and the modulus of variation satifying the conditions
ω(δ,f) = O(ω(δ)) and v(n,f) = O(v(n)) respectively, where the modulus of
continuity ω(δ) and the modulus of variation v(n) are given. In terms of
these properties the sufficient conditions of the absolute convergence are
established. We prove that these conditions are unimprovable in certain
sense.
