Abstract

We consider continuous semigroups of analytic functions {Φt}t0\{\Phi_t\}_{t\geq0} in the so-called Gordon-Hedenmalm class G\mathcal{G}, that is, the family of analytic functions Φ:C+C+\Phi:\mathbb C_+\to \mathbb C_+ giving rise to bounded composition operators in the Hardy space of Dirichlet series H2\mathcal{H}^2. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between continuous semigroups {Φt}t0\{\Phi_{t}\}_{t\geq0} in the class G\mathcal G and strongly continuous semigroups of composition operators {Tt}t0\{T_t\}_{t\geq0}, where Tt(f)=fΦtT_t(f)=f\circ\Phi_t, fH2f\in\mathcal{H}^2. We extend these results for the range p[1,)p\in[1,\infty). For the case p=p=\infty, we prove that there is no non-trivial strongly continuous semigroup of composition operators in H\mathcal{H}^\infty. We characterize the infinitesimal generators of continuous semigroups in the class G\mathcal G as those Dirichlet series sending C+\mathbb C_{+} into its closure. Some dynamical properties of the semigroups are obtained from a description of the Koenigs map of the semigroup.
