We use the kernel category to give a finiteness condition for semigroups. As a consequence we provide yet another proof that finitely generated periodic semigroups of matrices are finite.

We consider convex monotone $C_0$-semigroups on a Banach lattice, which is assumed to be a Riesz subspace of a $\sigma$-Dedekind complete Banach lattice. Typical examples include the space of all bounded uniformly continuous functions and…

This thesis is dedicated to developing a dilation theory for semigroups of completely positive maps. The first part treats two-parameter semigroups, and contains also contributions to dilation theory of product system representations. The…

We explore a natural class of semigroups that have word problem decidable by finite state automata. Among the main results are invariance of this property under change of generators, invariance under basic algebraic constructions and…

In this paper we study groups of positive operators on Banach lattices. If a certain factorization property holds for the elements of such a group, the group has a homomorphic image in the isometric positive operators which has the same…

In this article we prove the positive invariance of a closed subset by the semiflow generated by a semi-linear non densely Cauchy problem. The condition impose to obtain such a property is a so called sub-tangential condition. We apply our…

Let $K$ be a positive compact operator on a Banach lattice. We prove that if either $[K>$ or $<K]$ is ideal irreducible then $[K>=<K]=L_+(X)\cap {K}'$. We also establish the Perron-Frobenius Theorem for such operators $K$. Finally we apply…

In this thesis the Cauchy problem and in particular the question of singularity formation for co--rotational wave maps from 3+1 Minkowski space to the three--sphere $S^3$ is studied. Numerics indicate that self--similar solutions of this…

We establish existence and regularity of positive solutions for a class of quasilinear elliptic systems with singular and superlinear terms. The approach is based on sub-supersolution methods for systems of quasilinear singular equations…

We present an exposition of our ongoing project in a new area of applicable mathematics: practical computation with finitely generated linear groups over infinite fields. Methodology and algorithms available for practical computation in…

In this note we extend two characterizations of admissible operators with respect to $\mathrm{L}^p$ to more general Orlicz spaces. The equivalent conditions are given by the property that an associated operator generates a strongly…

In this article we study different aspects of Hermitian operators applying the concept of positive decompositions. On the one hand, we characterize the positivity of an Hermitian operator by means of a norm condition where the factors of…

The famous 1960s Lumer-Phillips Theorem states that a closed and densely defined operator $A\colon D(A)\subseteq X\rightarrow X$ on a Banach space $X$ generates a strongly continuous contraction semigroup if and only if $(A,D(A))$ is…

We present a characterization of hyperbolicity for strongly continuous semigroups on Banach spaces in terms of Fourier multiplier properties of the resolvent of the generator. Hyperbolicity with respect to classical solutions is also…

Let $T$ denote a positive operator with spectral radius $1$ on, say, an $L^p$-space. A classical result in infinite dimensional Perron--Frobenius theory says that, if $T$ is irreducible and power bounded, then its peripheral point spectrum…

In a recent paper [15], Hilbert space operators $T$ with the property that each sequence of the form $\{\|T^n h\|^2\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ is conditionally positive definite in a semigroup sense were introduced. In the present paper, this line…

The most developed aspect of the theory of finite semigroups is their classification in pseudovarieties. The main motivation for investigating such entities comes from their connection with the classification of regular languages via…

This is a continuation of the study of the theory of quantum stochastic dilation of completely positive semigroups on a von Neumann or $C^*$ algebra, here with unbounded generators. The additional assumption of symmetry with respect to a…

We prove the equivalence of the well-posedness of a partial differential equation with delay and an associated abstract Cauchy problem. This is used to derive sufficient conditions for well-posedness, exponential stability and norm…
