We analyse $C_0$-semigroups of contractive operators on real-valued $L^p$-spaces for $p \not= 2$ and on other classes of non-Hilbert spaces. We show that, under some regularity assumptions on the semigroup, the geometry of the unit ball of…

Hypercontractivity is proved for products of qubit channels that belong to self-adjoint semigroups. The hypercontractive bound gives necessary and sufficient conditions for a product of the form e^{- t_1 H_1} \ot ... \ot e^{- t_n H_n} to be…

A suitable notion of hypercontractivity for a nonlinear semigroup $\{T_t\}$ is shown to imply Gagliardo--Nirenberg inequalities for its generator $H$, provided a subhomogeneity property holds for the energy functional $(u,Hu)$. We use this…

Let $L$ be a positive self-adjoint operator on $L^2(X)$, where $X$ is a $\sigma$-finite metric measure space. When $\alpha \in (0,1)$, the subordinated semigroup $\{\exp(-tL^{\alpha}):t \in \mathbb{R}^+\}$ can be defined on $L^2(X)$ and…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of contractive operators and strongly continuous semigroups on separable Hilbert spaces using the notion of rigidity. In particular, we show that a "typical" contraction $T$ contains the unit circle times…

For any $1 < p < q < \infty$, we investigate fixed-time hypercontractive bounds from $L^p$ to $L^q$ of Poisson semigroups associated with the Ornstein--Uhlenbeck, Laguerre and Jacobi operators. We prove that, in the Ornstein--Uhlenbeck and…

We prove that the realization $A_p$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N),\,1<p<\infty$, of the elliptic operator $A=(1+|x|^{\alpha})\Delta+b|x|^{\alpha-1}\frac{x}{|x|}\cdot \nabla-c|x|^{\beta}$ with domain $D(A_p) =\{ u \in W^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\, |\, Au…

We extend some classical results of Cowling and Meda to the noncommutative setting. Let $(T_t)_{t>0}$ be a symmetric contraction semigroup on a noncommutative space $L_p(\mathcal{M}),$ and let the functions $\phi$ and $\psi$ be regularly…

Nittka gave an efficient criterion on a form defined on $L_2(\Omega)$ which implies that the associated semigroup is $L_p$-invariant for some given $p \in (1,\infty)$. We extend this criterion to the Hilbert space valued~$L_2(\Omega,H)$. As…

Let T_t=e^{-tL} be a semigroup of self-adjoint linear operators acting on L^2(X,mu), where (X,d mu) is a space of homogeneous type. We assume that T_t has an integral kernel T_t(x,y) which satisfies the upper and lower Gaussian bounds:…

This is a continuation of recent work on the general definition of pseudo-differential operators of type $1,1$, in H\"ormander's sense. Continuity in $L_p$-Sobolev spaces and H\"older--Zygmund spaces, and more generally in Besov and…

For $1<p\le q<\infty$ and $n\in\{3\cdot 2^{k},2^{k}\}$ with $k\ge 1$, we prove that the Poisson-like semigroup $(P_t)_{t\in \mathbb{R}_+}$ on $\mathbb{Z}_n$, associated with the word length $\psi_n(k)=\min(k,n-k)$, is hypercontractive from…

Let (M,\mu) be a sigma-finite measure space. Let (T_t) be a semigroup of positive preserving maps on (M,\mu) with standard assumptions. We prove a H_1-BMO duality theory with assumptions only on T_t. The BMO is defined as spaces of…

This paper focuses on systems of strongly coupled elliptic operators whose coefficients may be unbounded and are defined on a domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$. It is shown that a quasi-contractive semigroup in $L^p$-spaces can be…

In this paper, the concept of Birkhoff--James orthogonality of operators on a Hilbert space is generalized when a semi-inner product is considered. More precisely, for linear operators $T$ and $S$ on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, a…

If $(T_t)$ is a semigroup of Markov operators on an $L^1$-space that admits a non-trivial lower bound, then a well-known theorem of Lasota and Yorke asserts that the semigroup is strongly convergent as $t \to \infty$. In this article we…

Let $\E$ be a finite dimensional Hilbert space. This note finds all factorizations of the right shift semigroup $\S^\E=(S_t^\E)_{t\ge 0}$ on $L^2(\R_+,\E)$ into the product of $n$ commuting contractive semigroups, i.e., characterizes all…

An explicit sufficient condition on the hypercontractivity is derived for the Markov semigroup associated to a class of functional stochastic differential equations. Consequently, the semigroup $P_t$ converges exponentially to its unique…

The principle of optimizing inequalities, or their equivalent operator theoretic formulation, is well established in analysis. For an operator, this corresponds to extending its action to larger domains, hopefully to the largest possible…

We study $L^p$-theory of second-order elliptic divergence type operators with complex measurable coefficients. The major aspect is that we allow complex coefficients in the main part of the operator, too. We investigate generation of…
