In this paper we introduce a new decomposition of power-bounded operators, analogous to the Jacobs-deLeeuw-Glicksberg decomposition. This is done using so-called K\"ohler semigroups and the general theory of right topological compact…

We study linear operators $T$ on Banach spaces for which there exists a $C_0$-semigroup $(T(t))_{t\geq 0}$ such that $T=T(1)$. We present a necessary condition in terms of the spectral value 0 and give classes of examples where this can or…

If a function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ can be represented as the sum of $n$ periodic functions as $f=f_1+\dots+f_n$ with $f(x+\alpha_j)=f(x)$ ($j=1,\dots,n$), then it also satisfies a corresponding $n$-order difference equation…

Let $A,$ $T$ and $B$ be bounded linear operators on a Banach space. This paper is concerned mainly with finding some necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence in operator norm of the sequences $\left\{ A^{n}TB^{n}\right\} $ and…

Given a power-bounded linear operator T in a Banach space and a probability F on the non-negative integers, one can form a `subordinated' operator S = \sum_k F(k) T^k. We obtain asymptotic properties of the subordinated discrete semigroup…

For commuting linear operators $P_0,P_1,..., P_\ell$ we describe a range of conditions which are weaker than invertibility. When any of these conditions hold we may study the composition $P=P_0P_1... P_\ell$ in terms of the component…

We consider nonconstant periodic constrained minimizers of semilinear elliptic equations for integro-differential operators in $\mathbb{R}$. We prove that, after an appropriate translation, each of them is necessarily an even function which…

We present a new method for constructing $C_0$-semigroups for which properties of the resolvent of the generator and continuity properties of the semigroup in the operator-norm topology are controlled simultaneously. It allows us to show…

We study sequences of bounded operators \((T_n)_{n \ge 0}\) on a complex separable Hilbert space \(\mathcal{H}\) that satisfy a linear recurrence relation of the form $$ T_{n+r} = A_0 T_n + A_1 T_{n+1} + \cdots + A_{r-1} T_{n+r-1}…

Let $T$ be a power-bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space $X$, and let $S$ be a bounded linear operator from another Hilbert space $Y$ to $X$. We investigate the non-exponential rate of decay of $\|T^nS\|$ as $n \to \infty$. First, when…

The Markov group conjecture, a long-standing open problem in the theory of Markov processes with countable state space, asserts that a strongly continuous Markov semigroup $T = (T_t)_{t \in [0,\infty)}$ on $\ell^1$ has bounded generator if…

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $\mathcal A$ be the Banach algebra $B(X)$ of bounded (i.e. continuous) linear transformations (to be called operators) on $X$ to itself. Let $\mathcal E$ be the set of idempotents in $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal…

An operator $T$ acting on a Banach space $X$ is said to be recurrent if for each $U$; a nonempty open subset of $X$, there exists $n\in\mathbb{N}$ such that $T^n(U)\cap U\neq\emptyset.$ In the present work, we generalize this notion from a…

Let $T$ be a bounded quaternionic normal operator on a right quaternionic Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We show that $T$ can be factorized in a strongly irreducible sense, that is, for any $\delta >0$ there exist a compact operator $K$ with…

It is shown that operator-selfdecomposable measures, or more precisely their Urbanik decomposability semigroups, induce generalized Mehler semigroups of bounded linear operators. Moreover, those semigroups can be represented as random…

We present new conditions for semigroups of positive operators to converge strongly as time tends to infinity. Our proofs are based on a novel approach combining the well-known splitting theorem by Jacobs, de Leeuw and Glicksberg with a…

Let ${\bf R}$ denote any of the following classes: upper (lower) semi-Fredholm operators, Fredholm operators, upper (lower) semi-Weyl operators, Weyl operators, upper (lower) semi-Browder operators, Browder operators. For a bounded linear…

Let A be an arbitrary set. For any transformation T (self-map of A) let T(f)(x):=f(T(x)) (for all x in A) be the usual shift operator. A function g is called periodic, i.e., invariant mod T, if Tg=g (=Ig, where I is the identity operator).…

This paper is the first of a series regarding the Teukolsky equation of spin $\pm 1$ and spin $\pm 2$ on Kerr backgrounds in the full subextremal range of parameters $|a|<M$. In the present paper, we study fixed frequency solutions of the…

Consider a_1,a_2,...,a_n, arbitrary elements of R. We characterize those real functions f that decompose into the sum of a_j-periodic functions, i.e., f=f_1+...+f_n with D_{a_j}f(x):=f(x+a_j)-f(x)=0. We show that f has such a decomposition…
