Abstract. A theorem of Ferenc Lukács determines the jumps of a periodic, Lebesgue integrable function $f$ in terms of the partial sum of the conjugate series to the Fourier series of $f$. The aim of this paper is to prove an analogous theorem in terms of the Abel--Poisson mean for a periodic, Lebesgue integrable function in two variables. We also prove an estimate of the mixed partial derivative of the Abel--Poisson mean of the conjugate series to the Fourier series of an integrable function $F(x,y)$ at such a point, where $F$ is smooth. The two results are closely related.
