  • Let $\operatorname{rad}$ denote the Jacobson radical of a Banach algebra, and let $\Box$ and $\Diamond$ denote the two Arens products on its bidual. We give an example of a Beurling algebra $\mathcal{A}$ for which $\operatorname{rad}(\mathcal{A}^{**}, \Box) \neq \operatorname{rad}(\mathcal{A}^{**}, \Diamond)$, answering a question of Dales and Lau. The underlying group in our example is the free group on three generators.
