Relatively Uniformly Continuous Semigroups on Vector Lattices (1807.02543v2)

Abstract: In this paper we study continuous semigroups of positive operators on general vector lattices equipped with the relative uniform topology $\tau_{ru}$. We introduce the notions of strong continuity with respect to $\tau_{ru}$ and relative uniform continuity for semigroups. These notions allow us to study semigroups on non-locally convex spaces such as $L^p(\mathbb{R})$ for $0<p<1$ and non-complete spaces such as $Lip(\mathbb{R})$, $UC(\mathbb{R})$, and $C_c(\mathbb{R})$. We show that the (left) translation semigroup on the real line, the heat semigroup and some Koopman semigroups are relatively uniformly continuous on a variety of spaces.
