Analytic semigroups of pseudodifferential operators on vector-valued Sobolev spaces

In this paper we study continuity and invertibility of pseudodifferential operators with non-regular Banach space valued symbols. The corresponding pseudodifferential operators generate analytic semigroups on the Sobolev spaces W _p ^k (? ⁿ , E) with k ∈ ?₀, 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞. Here E is an arbitrary Banach space. We also apply the theory to solve non-autonomous parabolic pseudodifferential equations in Sobolev spaces.     

Strong topologies on vector-valued function spaces

Let be a real Banach space and let E be an ideal of L ⁰ over a -finite measure space (, , ). Let (X) be the space of all strongly -measurable functions f: X such that the scalar function , defined by , belongs to E. The paper deals with strong topologies on E(X). In particular, the strong topology the order continuous dual of E(X)) is examined. We generalize earlier results of [PC] and [FPS] concerning the strong topologies.     

Extreme contractions on continuous vector-valued function spaces

An old question asks whether extreme contractions on are necessarily nice; that is, whether the conjugate of such an operator maps extreme points of the dual ball to extreme points. Partial results have been obtained. Determining which operators are extreme seems to be a difficult task, even in the scalar case. Here we consider the case of extreme contractions on , where itself is a Banach space. We show that every extreme contraction on to itself which maps extreme points to elements of norm one is nice, where is compact and is the sequence space .

     

Properties of representations of operators acting between spaces of vector-valued functions

A well-known result going back to the 1930s states that all bounded linear operators mapping scalar-valued L ¹-spaces into L ^∞-spaces are kernel operators and that in fact this relation induces an isometric isomorphism between the space of such operators and the space of all bounded kernels. We extend this result to the case of spaces of vector-valued functions. A recent result due to Arendt and Thomaschewski states that the local operators acting on L ^p -spaces of functions with values in separable Banach spaces are precisely the multiplication operators. We extend this result to non-separable dual spaces. Moreover, we relate positivity and other order properties of the operators to corresponding properties of the representations.     

Characterizations of Disjointness preserving operators on vector-valued function spaces

We characterize compact and completely continuous disjointness preserving linear operators on vector-valued continuous functions as follows: a disjointness preserving operator is compact (resp. completely continuous) if and only if

Order-weakly compact operators from vector-valued function spaces to Banach spaces

Let be an ideal of over a  -finite measure space , and let stand for the order dual of . For a real Banach space let be a subspace of the space of -equivalence classes of strongly -measurable functions and consisting of all those for which the scalar function belongs to . For a real Banach space a linear operator is said to be order-weakly compact whenever for each the set is relatively weakly compact in . In this paper we examine order-weakly compact operators . We give a characterization of an order-weakly compact operator in terms of the continuity of the conjugate operator of with respect to some weak topologies. It is shown that if is an order continuous Banach function space, is a Banach space containing no isomorphic copy of and is a weakly sequentially complete Banach space, then every continuous linear operator is order-weakly compact. Moreover, it is proved that if is a Banach function space, then for every Banach space any continuous linear operator is order-weakly compact iff the norm is order continuous and is reflexive. In particular, for every Banach space any continuous linear operator is order-weakly compact iff is reflexive.

     

A class of quasicontractive semigroups acting on Hardy and weighted Hardy spaces

This paper studies semigroups of operators on Hardy and Dirichlet spaces whose generators are differential operators of order greater than one. The theory of forms is used to provide conditions for the generation of semigroups by second order differential operators. Finally, a class of more general weighted Hardy spaces is considered and necessary and sufficient conditions are given for an operator of the form \(f \mapsto Gf^{(n_0)}\) (for holomorphic G and arbitrary \(n_0\)) to generate a semigroup of quasicontractions.     

The strict topology in non-Archimedean vector-valued function spaces

Let F be a non-trivial complete non-Archimedean valued field. We study the strict topology β₀ on the space C_b(X,E) of all bounded continuous functions from a topological space X to a non-Archimedean F-locally convex space E over F. We also show that the dual of the space (C_b(X,E), β_o) is a certain space of E′-valued measures and we give a characterization of the equicontinuous subsets of this dual space.     

Hyperbolic evolution semigroups on vector valued function spaces

In [13] we characterized exponentially dichotomic evolution operators (U(t,s)) _t,s∈ℝ on a Banach spaceE in terms of the spectrum of an associatedC ₀-group on anE-valued function space. In this paper we investigate the more general case of hyperbolic evolution families (U(t,s)) _{t≥s,s∈ℝ} and derive a spectral characterization through an associatedC ₀-semigroup. We then apply the results to periodic initial value problems and show that the semigroup can be interpreted as a generalized monodromy operator. Furthermore we briefly discuss the spectral properties of aC ₀-semigroup associated with an evolution family (U(t, s)) _t ≥s≥0. Supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft     

Periodic solutions of integro-differential equations in vector-valued function spaces

Operator-valued Fourier multipliers are used to study well-posedness of integro-differential equations in Banach spaces. Both strong and mild periodic solutions are considered. Strong well-posedness corresponds to maximal regularity which has proved very efficient in the handling of nonlinear problems. We are concerned with a large array of vector-valued function spaces: Lebesgue-Bochner spaces Lp, the Besov spaces (and related spaces such as the Hölder-Zygmund spaces Cs) and the Triebel-Lizorkin spaces . We note that the multiplier results in these last two scales of spaces involve only boundedness conditions on the resolvents and are therefore applicable to arbitrary Banach spaces. The results are applied to various classes of nonlinear integral and integro-differential equations.

Integrability of vector-valued lacunary series with applications to function spaces

Let ${\mathcal L(r) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nr^{\lambda_n}}$ be a lacunary series converging for 0 <  r < 1, with coefficients in a quasinormed space. It is proved that $$\int_0^1 F(1-r,\|\mathcal L(r)\|)(1-r)^{-1}\,{\rm d}r < \infty $$ if and only if $$ \sum_{n=0}^\infty F(1/\lambda_n,\|a_n\|) < \infty, $$ where F is a “normal function” of two variables. In the case when p ≥ 1 and F(x, y) =  x y ^p , this reduces to a theorem of Gurariy and Matsaev. As an application we prove that if ${f(r\zeta) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty r^{\lambda_n}f_{\lambda_n}(\zeta)}$ is a function harmonic in the unit ball of ${\mathbb R^N,}$ then $$\int_0^1M_p^q(r,f)(1-r)^{q\alpha-1} \,{\rm d}r <\infty\quad (p,\,q,\,\alpha >0 ) $$ if and only if $$\sum_{n=0}^\infty \|f_{\lambda_n} \|^q_{L^p(\partial B_N)}(1/\lambda_n)^{q\alpha} <\infty. $$      

Hardy spaces of vector-valued functions

The purpose of this paper is to consider the relations among the various definitions of the spaces H^p of analytic functions with values in a Banach space and to investigate the problem of the structure of the conjugates of these spaces. In particular, one constructs an example of a reflexive separable Banach space χ, for which the equality H^p(X)^*=H^p′(X^*) (1<p<∞,1/p+1/p′=1) ails.

Solutions of second order degenerate integro-differential equations in vector-valued function spaces

We study the well-posedness of the second order degenerate integro-differential equations(P2):(Mu)(t)+α(Mu)(t) = Au(t)+ft-∞ a(ts)Au(s)ds + f(t),0t2π,with periodic boundary conditions M u(0)=Mu(2π),(Mu)(0) =(M u)(2π),in periodic Lebesgue-Bochner spaces Lp(T,X),periodic Besov spaces B s p,q(T,X) and periodic Triebel-Lizorkin spaces F s p,q(T,X),where A and M are closed linear operators on a Banach space X satisfying D(A) D(M),a∈L1(R+) and α is a scalar number.Using known operatorvalued Fourier multiplier theorems,we completely characterize the well-posedness of(P2) in the above three function spaces.
