Abstract
The Schur algebra is the algebra of operators which are bounded on ℓ1 and on ℓ∞. In this note, we exhibit an element of the group algebra of the free group with two generators, which, as a convolution operator, is invertible in ℓ2, and whose inverse is not bounded on ℓ1 nor on ℓ∞. In particular, this shows that the Schur algebra is not inverse-closed.
