Abstract
Let G be a locally compact motion group, i.e., it is a semidirect product of a compact subgroup with a closed abelian normal subgroup, the action of the compact subgroup on the other one being by conjugation. The main result of this paper is that the group algebra of such a group is symmetric. This result is then used to prove that a generalization of the Wiener-Tauberian theorem holds for such groups. Precisely, it is shown that every proper closed two-sided ideal in L 1( G) is annihilated by an irreducible unitary representation of G, lifted to L 1( G).
