Do you mean L1(R)? If f is i L1(R) then ||f,L1(R)|| = integral{| f(x)|} < 0 => f(x) - > 0 when |x|->inf . If f(x) is not 0 when x -> inf then integral{|f(x)|} doesn't exist!

Of course this is equal almost everywhere to (and thus is the same member of L1 as) a function for which the limit is 0. You might want to modify the example by taking small intervals around the integers. -- Robert Israel isr...@math.MyUniversitysInitials.ca Department of Mathematics http://www.math.ubc.ca/~israel University of British Columbia Vancouver, BC, Canada
