Improving semigroup bounds with resolvent estimates (Q2039333)

The authors revisit the proof of the Gearhart-Prüss-Huang-Greiner-theorem for a semigroup \((S(t))_{t\geq 0}\), following the general idea of the proofs that have been given in the literature and to get an explicit estimate on \(\|S(t)\|\) in terms of bounds on the resolvent of the generator. A~first version of this paper was presented by the two authors in [``From resolvent bounds to semigroup bounds'', Preprint (2010), \url{arXiv:1001.4171}] together with applications in semi-classical analysis and some of these results has been subsequently published in two books written by the authors. Their aim in the paper under review is to present new improvements, partially motivated by a paper of \textit{D.-Y. Wei} [Sci. China, Math. 64, No. 3, 507--518 (2021; Zbl 1464.35260)]. Along the way, they discuss optimization problems confirming the optimality of their results.
