    A twisted Fréchet space with basis

    No full text
    In this note we show that the twisted Fréchet and (LB)-spaces constructed by the second author in [6, § 1] and which were known not to have unconditional bases may, however, have a basis. © 1988 Springer-Verlag

    On the extendability of conformal vector fields of 2-dimensional manifolds

    No full text
    AbstractLet g be a pseudo-Riemannian metric on a 2-dimensional manifold M. We prove that a conformal vector field of g|M∖{p}, where p∈M, can be uniquely extended to a conformal vector field of g provided its conformal factor is bounded

    We study the analyticity of the Cox–Ingersoll–Ross semigroup generated by Aru=ν2xu′′+γu′+βxu′-rxu,in spaces of continuous functions on [ 0 , + ∞) and we provide the full description of the domain of the generator

    Kernel Estimates for Schroedinger Operators

    We prove short time estimates for the heat kernel of Schrödinger operators with unbounded potential in RNR^N. More precisely, if we denote by p(x;y;t)p(x; y; t) the heat kernel of the Schrödinger operator H=Δ+VH =-\Delta +V, then we prove upper bounds like p(x;y;t)c(t)ϕ(x)ϕ(y)p(x; y; t)\le c(t)\phi(x)\phi(y) for a large class of potentials tending to ++\infty as x|x| \to \infty , under the main assumption that ω=1/ϕ\omega =1/\phi satisfies ω(x)+\omega(x)\to +\infty as x|x|\to \infty and HωgoωH\omega \ge g o \omega , where g is a convex function growing faster than linearly. The behaviour of c(t) near 0 is also shown to be precise. Similar bounds are also proved for the derivatives of p. Our analysis provides a family of such estimates e.g. for V(x)=xαV(x)=|x|^\alpha for every α>0\alpha >0

    Some classes of non-analytic Markov semigroups

    No full text
    AbstractWe deal with Markov semigroups Tt corresponding to second order elliptic operators Au=Δu+〈Du,F〉, where F is an unbounded locally Lipschitz vector field on RN. We obtain new conditions on F under which Tt is not analytic in Cb(RN). In particular, we prove that the one-dimensional operator Au=u″−x3u′, with domain {u∈C2(R):u, u″−x3u′∈Cb(R)}, is not sectorial in Cb(R). Under suitable hypotheses on the growth of F, we introduce a class of non-analytic Markov semigroups in Lp(RN,μ), where μ is an invariant measure for Tt

    Gradient estimates for Dirichlet parabolic problems in unbounded domains

    No full text
    AbstractWe consider autonomous parabolic Dirichlet problems in a regular unbounded open set Ω⊂RN involving second-order operator A with (possibly) unbounded coefficients. We determine new conditions on the coefficients of A yielding global gradient estimates for the bounded classical solution

    Spectrum of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Operators in Lp Spaces with Respect to Invariant Measures

    No full text
    AbstractLet A=∑i,j=1NqijDij+∑i,j=1NbijxjDi be a possibly degenerate Ornstein–Uhlenbeck operator in RN and assume that the associated Markov semigroup has an invariant measure μ. We compute the spectrum of A in Lμp for 1⩽p<∞
