Review text

Let \(p\) be a probability density on \({\mathbb R}_+\) and let \(A\) denote the operator \(f\mapsto -f'\) defined on those suitably differentiable functions in \(L^\infty({\mathbb R}_+)\) fulfilling the boundary condition \[ \int_0^\infty(f(x)-f(0))p(x) dx= 0. \] The author shows that \(A\) is the generator of a \(\sigma\)-weakly continuous Markov semigroup (a unit preserving normal completely positive semigroup) on \(L^\infty({\mathbb R}_+)\), and if the support of the measure \(p(x) dx\) is \({\mathbb R}_+\), then the only subalgebra of of \(\text{dom }A\) is \(\mathbb C1\). In particular, \(\text{dom }A\) does not contain a \(\sigma\)-weakly dense subalgebra of \(L^\infty({\mathbb R}_+)\). Moreover, the Markov semigroup may be extended to a Markov semigroup on \(B(L^2({\mathbb R}_+))\) whose generator shares the last property. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0942.00035].
