We then apply this to the joint functional calculus of two commuting sectorial operators when one has an $H^{\\infty}$calculus. Using this we prove theorem of Dore-Venni type on sums of commuting sectorial operators and apply our results to the problem of $L_p-$maximal regularity. Our main assumption is the R-boundedness of certain sets of operators, and therefore methods from the geometry of Banach spaces are essential here. In the final section we exploit the special Banach space structure of $L_1-$spaces and $C(K)-$spaces, to obtain some more detailed results in this setting.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-10-15T22:00:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47A60", "47D06" ], "keywords": [ "closed operators", "commuting sectorial operators", "special banach space structure", "joint functional calculus", "general operator-valued functional calculus" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 26, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000math.....10155K" } } }
