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…
This work is devoted to dissipative extension theory for dissipative linear relations. We give a self-consistent theory of extensions by generalizing the theory on symmetric extensions of symmetric operators. Several results on the…
We consider five different abstract Cauchy problems where the operator is of fourth order. For each problem, using semigroups techniques and functional calculus, we study the invertibility and the spectral properties of the fourth order…
Various notions of dissipativity type for partial differential operators and their applications are surveyed. We deal with functional dissipativity and its particular case $L^p$-dissipativity. Most of the results are due to the authors.
We derive semiclassical laser equations valid in all orders of nonlinearity. With the help of a diagrammatic representation, the perturbation series in powers of electric field can be resummed in terms of a certain class of diagrams. The…
We study an elliptic differential equation set in two habitats under semi-permeability conditions at the interface. This equation describes some dispersal process in population dynamics. Using functional calculus and results in Lutz Weis…
In this article we investigate the solvability of infinite-dimensional differential algebraic equations. Such equations often arise as partial differential-algebraic equations (PDAEs). A decomposition of the state-space that leads to an…
Ranges of the real-valued parameters $\alpha$, $a$, $b$, and $m$ are identified for which the operator $$\mathcal{A}_{\alpha}(a,b)f(x):=x^\alpha\left(f''(x)+\frac{a}{x}f'(x)+\frac{b}{x^2}f(x)\right), \quad x>0,$$ generates an analytic…
As a generalization to the heat semigroup on the Heisenberg group, the diffusion semigroup generated by the subelliptic operator $L:=\ff 1 2 \sum_{i=1}^m X_i^2$ on $\R^{m+d}:= \R^m\times\R^d$ is investigated, where $$X_i(x,y)= \sum_{k=1}^m…

We consider perturbations of dynamical semigroups on the algebra of all bounded operators in a Hilbert space generated by covariant completely positive measures on the semi-axis. The construction is based upon unbounded linear perturbations…
We generalise the theory of energy functionals used in the study of gradient systems to the case where the domain of definition of the functional cannot be embedded into the Hilbert space $H$ on which the associated operator acts, such as…
A multivalued projection is an idempotent linear relation with invariant domain. We characterize multivalued projections that are operator ranges (called semiclosed) and provide several formulae of them. Moreover, we study the…
In this paper we extend the Lumer-Phillips theorem to the context of two--parameter C_0-semigroup of contractions. That is, we characterize the infinitesimal generators of two--parameter C_0-semigroups of contractions. Conditions on the…
The first part of the paper is a survey of some of the results previously obtained by the authors concerning the $L^p$-dissipativity of scalar and matrix partial differential operators. In the second part we give new necessary and,…
Crisp and lattice-valued ambiguous representations of one continuous semilattice in another one are introduced and operation of taking pseudo-inverse of the above relations is defined. It is shown that continuous semilattices and their…
Given a complex, elliptic coefficient function we investigate for which values of $p$ the corresponding second-order divergence form operator, complemented with Dirichlet, Neumann or mixed boundary conditions, generates a strongly…
Semi-Lagrangian methods have traditionally been developed in the framework of hyperbolic equations, but several extensions of the Semi-Lagrangian approach to diffusion and advection--diffusion problems have been proposed recently. These…
Adapting Lindstr\"om's well-known construction, we consider a wide class of functions which are generated by flows in a planar acyclic directed graph whose vertices (or edges) take weights in an arbitrary commutative semiring. We give a…
The purpose of the paper is to introduce and study a new class of operators on semi-Hilbertian spaces i.e.; spaces generated by positive semidefinite sesquilinear forms. Let H be a Hilbert space and let A be a positive bounded operator on H…
