Let $(X,d_X)$, $(\Omega ,d_{\Omega })$ be complete separable metric spaces. Denote by (X) the space of probability measures on X, by $W_p$ the p-Wasserstein metric with some p ∈ [1,∞), and by ${}_p\left(X\right)$ the space of probability measures on X with finite Wasserstein distance from any point measure. Let $f:\Omega {\to }_p\left(X\right)$, $\omega \mapsto f_{\omega }$, be a Borel map such that f is a contraction from $(\Omega ,d_{\Omega })$ into ${(}_p\left(X\right),W_p)$. Let ν₁,ν₂ be probability measures on Ω with $W_p(\nu ₁,\nu ₂)$ finite. On X we consider the subordinated measures ${\mu }_i={\int }_{\Omega }{f}_{\omega }d{\nu }_i\left(\omega \right)$. Then $W_p(\mu ₁,\mu ₂)\le W_p(\nu ₁,\nu ₂)$. As an application we show that the solution measures ${\varrho }_{\alpha }\left(t\right)$ to the partial...

Some criteria for weak compactness of set valued integrals are given. Also we show some applications to the study of multimeasures on Banach spaces with the Radon-Nikodym property.

We prove that, in arbitrary finite dimensions, the maximal operator for the Laguerre semigroup is of weak type (1,1). This extends Muckenhoupt's one-dimensional result.

We investigate the $L_p$-spectrum of linear operators defined consistently on $L_p\left(\Omega \right)$ for p₀ ≤ p ≤ p₁, where (Ω,μ) is an arbitrary σ-finite measure space and 1 ≤ p₀ < p₁ ≤ ∞. We prove p-independence of the $L_p$-spectrum assuming weighted norm estimates. The assumptions are formulated in terms of a measurable semi-metric d on (Ω,μ); the balls with respect to this semi-metric are required to satisfy a subexponential volume growth condition. We show how previous results on $L_p$-spectral independence can be treated...

We propose a concept of weighted pseudo almost automorphic functions on almost periodic time scales and study some important properties of weighted pseudo almost automorphic functions on almost periodic time scales. As applications, we obtain the conditions for the existence of weighted pseudo almost automorphic mild solutions to a class of semilinear dynamic equations on almost periodic time scales.

Using known results on operator-valued Fourier multipliers on vector-valued function spaces, we give necessary or sufficient conditions for the well-posedness of the second order degenerate equations (P₂): d/dt (Mu’)(t) = Au(t) + f(t) (0 ≤ t ≤ 2π) with periodic boundary conditions u(0) = u(2π), (Mu’)(0) = (Mu’)(2π), in Lebesgue-Bochner spaces $L^p(,X)$, periodic Besov spaces $B_{p,q}^s(,X)$ and periodic Triebel-Lizorkin spaces $F_{p,q}^s(,X)$, where A and M are closed operators in a Banach space X satisfying D(A) ⊂ D(M). Our results...

Let L be a nonsymmetric second order uniformly elliptic operator with generalWentzell boundary conditions. We show that a suitable version of L generates a quasicontractive semigroup on an Lp space that incorporates both the underlying domain and its boundary. This extends the earlier work of the authors on the symmetric case.
