On a criterion for log-convex decay in non-selfadjoint dynamics

Analysis of PDEs 2020-04-27 v2

Abstract

The short-time and global behaviour are studied for autonomous linear evolution equations defined by generators of uniformly bounded holomorphic semigroups in a Hilbert space. A general criterion for log-convexity in time of the norm of the solution is treated. Strict decrease and differentiability at the initial time results, with a derivative controlled by the lower bound of the negative generator, which is proved strictly accretive with equal numerical and spectral abscissas.
