Multi-parameter local semi-groups of Hermetian operators (Q789704)

A Hermitian local semi-group on a Hilbert space is an (unbounded) operator valued function \((S_ t)_{t\in Q}\) defined on an open convex set \(Q\subset {\mathbb{R}}^ n\) with 0\(\in \bar Q\), and satisfying rather general semi-group and symmetry properties. It is shown that there exists a unique spectral measure E relative to the subspace \(H_ 0:\quad =\overline{\cup}_{t\in Q}R(S_ t),\) defined on the Borel sets of \({\mathbb{R}}^ n\), such that \(S_ t\subset T_ t=\int e^{t\cdot \lambda}dE(\lambda)\) holds for all \(t\in Q.\) This result generalizes previous one-parameter results of the author [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 152 (1970), 419-429 (1971; Zbl 0208.160)] and \textit{A. Klein} and \textit{L. J. Landau} [J. Funct. Anal. 44, 121-137 (1981; Zbl 0473.47023)]. One of the main ingredients in the proof is the integral representation of exponentially convex functions.
