Asymptotics of sums of subcoercive operators

Nick DungeyA. ter ElstDerek Robinson — 1999

Colloquium Mathematicae

We examine the asymptotic, or large-time, behaviour of the semigroup kernel associated with a finite sum of homogeneous subcoercive operators acting on a connected Lie group of polynomial growth. If the group is nilpotent we prove that the kernel is bounded by a convolution of two Gaussians whose orders correspond to the highest and lowest orders of the homogeneous subcoercive components of the generator. Moreover we establish precise asymptotic estimates on the difference of the kernel and the...

Heat kernels and Riesz transforms on nilpotent Lie groups

A. ter ElstDerek RobinsonAdam Sikora — 1998

Colloquium Mathematicae

We consider pure mth order subcoercive operators with complex coefficients acting on a connected nilpotent Lie group. We derive Gaussian bounds with the correct small time singularity and the optimal large time asymptotic behaviour on the heat kernel and all its derivatives, both right and left. Further we prove that the Riesz transforms of all orders are bounded on the Lp -spaces with p ∈ (1, ∞). Finally, for second-order operators with real coefficients we derive matching Gaussian lower bounds...

On positive Rockland operators

Pascal AuscherA. ter ElstDerek Robinson — 1994

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let G be a homogeneous Lie group with a left Haar measure dg and L the action of G as left translations on L p ( G ; d g ) . Further, let H = dL(C) denote a homogeneous operator associated with L. If H is positive and hypoelliptic on L 2 we prove that it is closed on each of the L p -spaces, p ∈ 〈 1,∞〉, and that it generates a semigroup S with a smooth kernel K which, with its derivatives, satisfies Gaussian bounds. The semigroup is holomorphic in the open right half-plane on all the L p -spaces, p ∈ [1,∞]. Further extensions...

L₁-uniqueness of degenerate elliptic operators

Derek W. RobinsonAdam Sikora — 2011

Studia Mathematica

Let Ω be an open subset of d with 0 ∈ Ω. Furthermore, let H Ω = - i , j = 1 d i c i j j be a second-order partial differential operator with domain C c ( Ω ) where the coefficients c i j W l o c 1 , ( Ω ̅ ) are real, c i j = c j i and the coefficient matrix C = ( c i j ) satisfies bounds 0 < C(x) ≤ c(|x|)I for all x ∈ Ω. If 0 d s s d / 2 e - λ μ ( s ) ² < for some λ > 0 where μ ( s ) = 0 s d t c ( t ) - 1 / 2 then we establish that H Ω is L₁-unique, i.e. it has a unique L₁-extension which generates a continuous semigroup, if and only if it is Markov unique, i.e. it has a unique L₂-extension which generates a submarkovian semigroup. Moreover...
