Harmonic analysis of weighted $L^p$-algebras
  Let $G$ be a locally compact, compactly generated group of polynomial growth and let $\omega$ be a weight on $G$. Under proper assumptions on the weight $\omega$, the Banach space $L^p(G,\omega)$ is a Banach \ast-algebra. In this paper we give examples of such weighted $L^p$-algebras and we study some of their harmonic analysis properties, such as symmetry, existence of functional calculus, regularity, weak Wiener property, Wiener property, existence of minimal ideals of a given hull.
