New properties of the multivariable \(H^\infty\) functional calculus of sectorial operators (Q2039336)

Let \(A : \operatorname{dom}A \rightarrow X\) be a closed and densely defined operator on a Banach space \(X\). We say that \(A\) is sectorial of type \(\omega \in(0, \pi)\) if its spectrum \(\sigma(A)\) satisfies \(\sigma(A) \subseteq \overline{\Sigma_\omega}\) and for any \(\theta \in (\omega, \pi)\), there exists a constant \(C_\theta \geq 0\) such that \[ \|z R(z,A)\| \leq C_\theta \qquad (z \in \mathbb{C} \setminus \overline{\Sigma_\theta}), \] where \(R(z,A) = (z I_X - A)^{-1}\), and \[ \Sigma_\theta = \{z \in \mathbb{C}^*: |\!\operatorname{Arg} z| < \theta\}. \] The paper under review concerns a multivariable \(H^\infty\)-functional calculus associated with commuting families of sectorial operators on Banach spaces. One of the main results of this paper extends a result of \textit{N. J. Kalton} and \textit{L. Weis} [Math. Ann. 321, No. 2, 319--345 (2001; Zbl 0992.47005)] on the optimal angle of bounded \(H^\infty\)-functional calculus into the setting of tuples of operators. Another important result states: If \(X\) is reflexive and \(K\)-convex, then a tuple \((A_1, \dots, A_d)\) admitting a bounded \(H^\infty(\Sigma_{\theta_1} \times \dots \times \Sigma_{\theta_d})\) joint functional calculus for some \(\theta_k < \frac{\pi}{2}\), \(k=1, \ldots, d\), dilates into a commuting tuple of sectorial operators \((B_1, \dots, B_d)\) on a Bochner space admitting bounded \(H^\infty(\Sigma_{\frac{\pi}{2}} \times \dots \times \Sigma_{\frac{\pi}{2}})\) joint functional calculus, where each \(B_k\) generates a bounded \(C_0\)-group.
