Does the Banach algebra $L^1(\mathbb{R})$ have zero divisors?
Assume that the functions $f,g: \mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ are integrable and equal to zero on $(-\infty,0)$, (i.e $f,g \in L^+$). Then by Titchmarsh's theorem:
$f*g$ is zero almost everywhere ...

I am pretty sure the answer is no, because I think that
$f,g \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ does not imply that $f*g \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$. However, I ...
