In mathematics, the term Beurling algebra is used for different algebras introduced by Arne Beurling (1949), usually it is an algebra of periodic functions with Fourier series

f ( x ) = a n e i n x

Example We may consider the algebra of those functions f where the majorants

c k = sup | n | k | a n |

of the Fourier coefficients an are summable. In other words

k 0 c k < .

Example We may consider a weight function w on Z such that

w ( m + n ) w ( m ) w ( n ) , w ( 0 ) = 1

in which case A w ( T ) = { f : f ( t ) = n a n e i n t , f w = n | a n | w ( n ) < } ( w 1 ( Z ) ) is a unitary commutative Banach algebra.

These algebras are closely related to the Wiener algebra.
