Characterization of polynomial decay rate for the solution of linear evolution equation (Q2487143): Difference between revisions

The authors estimate the decay rate of solutions of the linear evolution equation \[ x'(t)={\mathcal A} x(t) ,\quad x(0)=x_0, \] where \({\mathcal A}\) generates a bounded \(C_0\)-semigroup on a Hilbert space. As the main result, it states that if the resolvent operator \((i\beta -{\mathcal A})^{-1}\) in the imaginary axis is of polynomial order \(\beta^l\), \(l>0\), then for any integer \(k >0\), there is a constant \(C_k >0\) such that \[ \| x(t)\| \leq C_k \left(\frac{\ln t}{t}\right)^{k/t} (\ln t)\| x_0\| _{D({\mathcal A}^k)}. \] As applications, three examples about the wave and heat equations are given.
