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…

In this article, we study strictly elliptic, second-order differential operators on a bounded Lipschitz domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$, subject to certain non-local Wentzell-Robin boundary conditions. We prove that such operators generate…

Related to a semigroup of operators on a metric measure space, we define and study pseudodifferential operators (including the setting of Riemannian manifold, fractals, graphs ...). Boundedness on $L^p$ for pseudodifferential operators of…

The Stokes equation on a domain $\Omega \subset R^n$ is well understood in the $L^p$-setting for a large class of domains including bounded and exterior domains with smooth boundaries provided $1<p<\infty$. The situation is very different…

In this paper, we derive the $L^p$-boundedness of the variation operators associated with the heat semigroup which is generated by the high order Schr\"odinger type operator $(-\Delta)^2+V^2$. Further more, we prove the boundedness of the…

We give sufficient conditions on an operator space $E$ and on a semigroup of operators on a von Neumann algebra $M$ to obtain a bounded analytic or a $R$-analytic semigroup $(T_t \otimes Id_E)_{t \geq 0}$ on the vector valued noncommutative…

We study the operator $L=-\Delta+q$ on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, where $q(x)$ is a distributional potential. We find sufficient conditions for $q(x)$ which guarantee that $L$ is well--defined with Dirichlet and…

Let (H_t) be the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on R^d with covariance matrix I and drift matrix \lambda(R-I), where \lambda>0 and R is a skew-adjoint matrix and denote by \gamma_\infty the invariant measure for (H_t). Semigroups of this form…

By $\{T_t^a\}_{t>0}$ we denote the semigroup of operators generated by the Friedrichs extension of the Schr\"odinger operator with the inverse square potential $L_a=-\Delta+\frac{a}{|x|^2}$ defined in the space of smooth functions with…

Let $A$ be an unbounded operator on a Banach space $X$. It is sometimes useful to improve the operator $A$ by extending it to an operator $B$ on a larger Banach space $Y$ with smaller spectrum. It would be preferable to do this with some…

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 develop a detailed regularity theory of $-\Delta +b\cdot\nabla$ in $L^p(\mathbb R^d)$, for a wide class of vector fields. The $L^p$-theory allows us to construct associated strong Feller process in $C_\infty(\mathbb R^d)$. Our starting…

We prove that the operator $L_0=-(1+|x|)^\beta(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ with $\alpha\in(0,2)$, $d>\alpha$ and $\beta\ge0$ generates a compact semigroup or resolvent on $L^2(\R^d;(1+|x|)^{-\beta}\,dx)$, if and only if $\beta>\alpha$. When…

We consider the higher order Schr\"odinger operator $H=(-\Delta)^m+V(x)$ in $n$ dimensions with real-valued potential $V$ when $n>4m-1$, $m\in \mathbb N$. We show that for any $\frac{2n}{n-4m+1}<p\leq \infty$ and $0\leq \alpha…

We characterize the domain of the Schr\"odinger operators $S=-\Delta+c|x|^{-\alpha}$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)$, with $0<\alpha<2$ and $c\in\mathbb{R}$. When $\alpha p< N$, the domain characterization is essentially known and can be proved…

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, we study vector--valued elliptic operators of the form $\mathcal{L}f:=\mathrm{div}(Q\nabla f)-F\cdot\nabla f+\mathrm{div}(Cf)-Vf$ acting on vector-valued functions $f:\mathbb{R}^d\to\mathbb{R}^m$ and involving coupling at…
