If has nowhere vanishing Fourier transform and is a function in such that the convolution tends to zero as , then the convolution , for any tends to zero as . Established by N. Wiener [1]. This theorem was generalized to include any commutative locally compact non-compact group : If is a function on , summable with respect to the Haar measure, whose Fourier transform does not vanish on the group of characters of and if is a function in such that the convolution tends to zero at infinity on , then the convolution tends to zero at infinity on for all summable functions on .

This theorem is based on the regularity of the group algebra of a commutative locally compact group, and on the possibility of spectral synthesis in group algebras for closed ideals belonging to only a finite number of regular maximal ideals [3].
