Abstract:
We generalize a result by Brenner and Thomée on the rate of convergence of rational approximation schemes for semigroups. Using abstract interpolation techniques we obtain convergence on a continuum of intermediate spaces between the Banach space and the domain of a certain power of the generator of the semigroup. The sharpness of the results is also discussed.
