Mehler-type semigroups on Hilbert spaces and their generators (Q2752093)

The aim of the present paper is to survey some recent results about so-called generalized Mehler semigroups, i.e.~about transformations \((P_t)_{t\geq 0}\) defined by \[ P_t f (x) =\int_E f(T_t x +y) \mu_t(dy) \] with \((T_t)_{t\geq 0}\) being a strongly continuous semigroup of linear operators on the Banach space \(E\) and \((\mu_t)_{t\geq 0} \) denotes a family of Borel probability measures on \(E\), weakly continuous in \(t\). The \(P_t\)'s are assumed to act on some space of functions over \(E\), e.g.~the set of bounded continuous functions on \(E\) or on \(L_p(E,\nu)\) for a certain probability measure \(\nu\) on \(E\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0964.00014].
