It is shown that if G is a weakly amenable unimodular group then the Banach algebra $A_p^r\left(G\right)=A_p\cap L^r\left(G\right)$, where $A_p\left(G\right)$ is the Figà-Talamanca-Herz Banach algebra of G, is a dual Banach space with the Radon-Nikodym property if 1 ≤ r ≤ max(p,p’). This does not hold if p = 2 and r > 2.

We generalize Wiener's inversion theorem for Fourier transforms on closed subsets of the dual group of a locally compact abelian group to cosets of ideals in a class of non-commutative *-algebras having specified properties, which are all fulfilled in the case of the group algebra of any locally compact abelian group.
