We show that, under some regularity assumptions on the semigroup, the geometry of the unit ball of those spaces forces the semigroup's generator to have only trivial (point) spectrum on the imaginary axis. This has interesting consequences for the asymptotic behaviour as $t \\to \\infty$. For example, we can show that a contractive and eventually norm continuous $C_0$-semigroup on a real-valued $L^p$-space automatically converges strongly if $p \\not\\in \\{1,2,\\infty\\}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-10-09T15:09:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47D06" ], "keywords": [ "non-hilbert spaces", "asymptotic properties", "contractive semigroups", "spaces forces", "unit ball" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 26, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1410.2502G" } } }
