    POLYNOMIAL OPERATOR MATRICES AS SEMIGROUP GENERATORS - THE 2X2 CASE

    No full text
    Many systems of linear evolution equations can be written as a single equation \dot u(t)=\s A u(t),\eqno(*) where uu is a function with values in a product space EnE^n and \s A =(A_{ij})_{n\times n} is a matrix whose entries AijA_{ij} are linear operators on EE. In order to prove the well-posedness of ()(*) one shows that \s A generates a strongly continuous semigroup on EnE^n. In this paper we consider the case where the AijA_{ij} are polynomials pij(A)p_{ij}(A) with respect to a single (unbounded) operator AA on EE and restrict our attention to the case of 2×22\times2 matrices

    No full text
    Of concern are systems of linear evolution equations \dot u(t)=\s A u(t),\qquad u(0)=u_0,\leqno({\rm ACP}) where uu is a function with values in a product Banach space \s E :=E^n and \s A=(p_{ij}(A)) is a n×nn\times n matrix whose entries are polynomials in a fixed linear, possibly unbounded operator AA on EE. In this paper we will study the well-posedness of (ACP)({\rm ACP}), i.e., we will characterize those polynomial operator matrices \s A generating a strongly continuous semigroup on \s E

    ON SINGULAR PERTURBATIONS OF 2ND-ORDER CAUCHY-PROBLEMS

    No full text
    We give an explicit formula for the solution of complete second order Cauchy problems in Banach spaces. Using this formula we derive an estimate for the growth of the solution in terms of an associated scalar ODE. Finally these results are applied to singular perturbations of second order Cauchy problems

    Generator property and stability for generalized difference operators

    We introduce generalized difference operators, characterize their gen- erator property and estimate the growth bound of the generated semigroup. The results are illustrated by several examples

    Systems of evolution equations

    In this notes we present a rather general framework which allows to prove in a unified and systematic way that certain second order differential operators with Wentzell-type boundary conditions generate analytic semigroups or even cosine families on spaces of continuous functions. It is based on similarity transformations and perturbation techniques which allow to decouple (complicated) Wentzell boundary conditions yielding to an operator with (much simpler) abstract “Dirichlet” boundary conditions and an abstract “Dirichlet–Neumann” operator on a “boundary space”

    Spectral theory and generator property for one-sided coupled operator matrices

    No full text
    Many initial value problems like Volterra equations, delay equations or wave equations can be reduced to an abstract Cauchy problem governed by an opercator matrix. We introduce a new class of unbounded operator matrices corresponding to these equations and study the spectral theory, compute the adjoint and analyze the generator property of its elements. The abstract results are illustrated by a series of applications

    No full text
    In this note we prove that the Laplacian with generalized Wentzell boundary conditions on an open bounded regular domain Omega in R-m defined by (1) Af := Deltaf, D(A) := {f is an element of C-n(1) ((Omega) over bar) : Deltaf is an element of C((Omega) over bar); Deltaf + betapartial derivativef/partial derivativen + gammaf = 0 on partial derivativeOmega} generates an analytic semigroup of angle pi/2 on C((Omega) over bar) for every beta > 0 and gamma is an element of C (partial derivativeOmega) (for the 2 definition of C-n(1) ((Omega) over bar) cf. (1.3))
