Semigroups of composition operators on Hardy spaces of Dirichlet series (Q6175739)

The so-called Gordon-Hedenmalm class G consists of all analytic selfmaps of the upper-half complex plane \(C_+\) that induce bounded composition operators on the Hardy space \(H^2\) of Dirichlet series on \(C_+\). The main result of the paper shows that there is a one-to-one correspondence between continuous semi-groups of functions in G and strongly continuous semi-groups of composition operators on \(H^2\), and the result actually holds for \(H^p\) with \(1\le p<\infty\). It is further shown that there is no nontrivial strongly continuous semi-group of composition operators on \(H^\infty\).
