Analyticity and compactness of semigroups of composition operators (1502.05576v2)
Published 19 Feb 2015 in math.FA and math.CV
Abstract: This paper provides a complete characterization of quasicontractive groups and analytic $C_0$-semigroups on Hardy and Dirichlet space on the unit disc with a prescribed generator of the form $Af=Gf'$. In the analytic case we also give a complete characterization of immediately compact semigroups. When the analyticity fails, we obtain sufficient conditions for compactness and membership in the trace class. Finally, we analyse the case where the unit disc is replaced by the right-half plane, where the results are drastically different.
