Suppose A is an injective linear operator on a Banach space that generates a uniformly bounded strongly continuous semigroup ${e^{tA}}_{t\ge 0}$. It is shown that $A^{-1}$ generates an $O(1+\tau )A{(1-A)}^{-1}$-regularized semigroup. Several equivalences for $A^{-1}$ generating a strongly continuous semigroup are given. These are used to generate sufficient conditions on the growth of ${e^{tA}}_{t\ge 0}$, on subspaces, for $A^{-1}$ generating a strongly continuous semigroup, and to show that the inverse of -d/dx on the closure of its image in L¹([0,∞)) does not generate a strongly...

We show that if the set of all bounded strongly continuous cosine families on a Banach space X is treated as a metric space under the metric of the uniform convergence associated with the operator norm on the space 𝓛(X) of all bounded linear operators on X, then the isolated points of this set are precisely the scalar cosine families. By definition, a scalar cosine family is a cosine family whose members are all scalar multiples of the identity operator. We also show that if the sets of all bounded...
