One-parameter semigroups of antitriangle idempotent supermatrices and corresponding superoperator semigroups are introduced and investigated. It is shown that t-linear idempotent superoperators and exponential superoperators are mutually dual in some sense, and the first gives additional to exponential solution to the initial Cauchy problem. The corresponding functional equation and analog of r...

In this article we give some characterizations of exponential stability for a periodic discrete evolution family of bounded linear operators acting on a Banach space in terms of discrete evolution semigroups, acting on a special space of almost periodic sequences. As a result, a spectral mapping theorem is stated. AMS (MOS) Subject Classification Codes: Primary 35B35.

In this paper we show that a result of Gross and Kuelbs, used to study Gaussian measures on Banach spaces, makes it possible to construct an adjoint for operators on separable Banach spaces. This result is used to extend well known theorems of von Neumann and Lax. We also partially solve an open problem on the existence of a Markushevich basis with unit norm and prove that all closed densely de...

We consider switched systems on Banach and Hilbert spaces governed by strongly continuous one-parameter semigroups of linear evolution operators. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for their global exponential stability, uniform with respect to the switching signal, in terms of the existence of a Lyapunov function common to all modes.

Max-plus methods have been explored for solution of first-order, nonlinear HamiltonJacobi-Bellman partial differential equations (HJB PDEs) and corresponding nonlinear control problems. These methods exploit the max-plus linearity of the associated semigroups. In particular, although the problems are nonlinear, the semigroups are linear in the max-plus sense. These methods have been used succes...

Two conjectures on admissible control operators by George Weiss are disproved in this paper. One conjecture says that an operator B defined on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space U is an admissible control operator if for every element u ∈ U the vector Bu defines an admissible control operator. The other conjecture says that B is an admissible control operator if a certain resolvent estimate ...
