Semigroups of Linear Operators and Applications to Partial Differential Equations (Applied Mathematical Sciences, 44)

<P>Since the characterization of generators of C0 semigroups was established in the 1940s, semigroups of linear operators and its neighboring areas have developed into an abstract theory that has become a necessary discipline in functional analysis and differential equations. This book presents that theory and its basic applications, and the last two chapters give a connected account of the applications to partial differential equations.</P>
