Interference between entire functions with separated indicator diagrams Let $F,H:\mathbb{C}\to\mathbb{C}$ be entire functions of mean exponential type and of completely regular growth. Assume further that the indicator diagrams $I_F$ and $I_H$ are on the imaginary axis and separated, e.g., $I_F=\imath[a,b]$ and $I_H=\imath[b+1,c]$.
Question: Does $F+H \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ imply $F\in L^2(\mathbb{R}
)$?
In other words, can $F$ and $H$ interfere on $\mathbb{R}$ in a way that $F+H\in L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$ without $F$ or $H$ being $L^2(\mathbb{R})$?
Discussion: Motivation behind this question comes from real analysis. If we assume in addition that $F,H$ are polynomially bounded on $\mathbb{R}$ then they are Fourier transforms of compactly supported distributions $u_F,u_H$ on $\mathbb{R}$, and $\mathrm{supp}\,u_F=\imath I_F$, $\mathrm{supp}\,u_H=\imath I_H$ (Paley-Wiener, Plancherel-Polya). Qualitatively, the behaviour at infinity of $F$ and $H$ reflect the local regularity of $u_F$ and $u_H$. If $F+
H\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ then $u_F+u_L\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$, i.e., the sum of the two distributions is locally integrable. However, since $\mathrm{supp}\,u_F\cap\mathrm{supp}\,u_H=\emptyset$, adding $u_H$ to $u_F$ cannot change the local regularity of $u_F$, and we expect $u_F$ to be locally integrable as well, which entails $F\in L^2(\mathbb{R})$. In the above question we do not assume that $F$ and $H$ are polynomially bounded on $\mathbb{R}$, but we let $I_F$ and $I_H$ be at a positive distance. In this case $F$ and $H$ can be thought of as Fourier transforms of analytical functionals, but the latter objects do not have the notion of compact support, and the analogy doesn't work.
Thank you.
Edit: For an entire function $F$ of mean exponential type, the indicator function can be defined as
$$
h_F(\theta)=\limsup_{r\to\infty}\frac{\log|f(re^{\imath\theta})|}{r}
$$
and indicates the rate of growth in direction $\theta$. It can be shown that there exists a compact convex set $I_T\subset\mathbb{C}$ (called the indicator diagram of $F$) such that $h_F$ is exactly the support function of $I_F$,
$$
h_F(\theta)=\sup_{z\in I_F}\mathrm{Re}\left[ze^{-\imath\theta}\right].
$$
Intuitively, the thickness of the projection of the set $I_F$ on the ray $\theta$ shows the rate of growth of $F$ along that ray.
 A: The proof that you indicated for polynomially bounded case can be extended almost literally to the general case, if you use the correct generalization of Fourier-Laplace transform.
Indeed, suppose that $F+G\in L^2(R)$. Then by the Paley-Wiener, this sum is a Fourier transform of some $L^2$ function, say $h$
supported on $[a,c]$ since the indicator diagram of $F+G$ belongs to $[a,c]$.
On the other hand, $F+G$ is the Borel transform of an analytic function in
$C\cup\{\infty\}\backslash([a,b]\cup[b+1,c])$. By the uniqueness theorem of the Borel transform, this analytic function "coincides" with $g$ in the sense of hyperfunctions. It follows that both $F$ and $G$ are in $L^2$.
