Let $G$ be an abelian locally (separable?) compact group with Haar measure $\mu$. Inspired by the interesting proof of A sum of two binomial random variables : Let $X$ and $Y$ be $G$-valued independent random variables with $\mu$-density $f_X$ resp. $f_Y$. Let $f_{X \pm Y}$ be the $\mu$-density of $X \pm Y$. Is it always true that $$\int f_{X-Y}^2 d\mu = \int f_{X+Y}^2 d\mu \ ?$$ This holds true for $G = \mathbb{Z}$ (here both integrals are finite) .

Comparing $X+Y$ and $X-Y$ for independent random variables with values in an abelian locally compact group

Let $G$ be an abelian locally (separable?) compact group with Haar measure $\mu$.
