    Overiterated Linear Operator and Asymptotic Behaviour of Semigroups

    No full text
    The results provided hereby are related to the asymptotic behaviour of certain strongly continuous semigroups, which may be expressed in terms of iterates of positive linear operators, in the sense of Altomare’s theory. We present some applications to concrete cases involving continuous and discrete type operators, namely the Beta and the Stancu operators. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000).

    Extrapolation Properties of Multivariate Bernstein Polynomials

    We consider some connections between the classical sequence of Bernstein polynomials and the Taylor expansion at the point 0 of a C^∞ function f defined on a convex open subset Ω⊂R^d containing the d-dimensional simplex S^d of R^d. Under general assumptions, we obtain that the sequence of Bernstein polynomials converges to the Taylor expansion and hence to the function f together with derivatives of every order not only on S^d but also on the whole Ω. This result yields extrapolation properties of the classical Bernstein operators and their derivatives. An extension of the Voronovskaja’s formula is also stated

    Lipschitz contractions, unique ergodicity and asymptotics of Markov semigroups

    We are mainly concerned with the asymptotic behaviour of both discrete and continuous semigroups of Markov operators acting on the space C(X) of all continuous functions on a compact metric space X. We establish a simple criterion under which such semigroups admit a unique invariant probability measure μ\mu on X that determines their limit behaviour on C(X) and on L^p(X,\mu). The criterion involves the behaviour of the semigroups on Lipschitz continuous functions and on the relevant Lipschitz seminorms. Finally, we discuss some applications concerning the Kantorovich operators on the hypercube and the Bernstein-Durrmeyer operator with Jacobi weights on [0,1]. As a consequence we determine the limit of the iterates of these operators as well as of their corresponding Markov semigroups whose generators fall in the class of Fleming-Viot differential operators arising in population genetics

    Qualitative properties of a class of Fleming-Viot type operators

    We indicate some qualitative properties of Fleming-Viot second order differential operators on the d-dimensional simplex, such as an inductive characterization of its domain and some spectral properties connected with the asymptotic behavior of the generated semigroup. These properties turn out to be very useful in the approximation of the solution of the evolution problem associated with Fleming-Viot operators, which are very important as diffusion models in population genetics
