Abstract: The phenomenon "hypo-coercivity," i.e., the increased rate of contraction for a semi-group upon adding a large skew-adjoint part to the generator, is considered for 1D semigroups generated by the Schr"odinger operators $-partia{l}_x^2+x^2+igammaf(x)$ with a complex potential. For $f$ of the special form$f(x)=1/(1+|x{|}^{k}appa)$, it is shown using complex dilations that the real part of eigenvalues of the operator are larger than a constant times $|gamma{|}^{2/(kappa+2)}$.

Review text

The paper is devoted to the following problem raised by \textit{C. Villani} (see [in: Proceedings of the international congress of mathematicians (ICM), Madrid, Spain, 2006. Volume III: Invited lectures. Zürich: European Mathematical Society (EMS). 473--498 (2006; Zbl 1130.35027)]): ``Identify sufficient conditions on \(f : {\mathbb R} \to {\mathbb R}\), so that the real parts of the eigenvalues of \(L_\gamma:\psi\to (-\partial_x^2\psi+x^2\psi)+i\gamma f\psi \) as an operator on \(L^2\) go to infinity as \(|\gamma| \to\infty\) and estimate the rate of divergence. The author considers \(f(x)=1/(1+|x|^{\kappa})\) for arbitrary \(\kappa > 0\). It is shown using complex dilations that the real parts of the eigenvalues of the operator are larger than a constant multiplied by \( |\gamma|^{2/(\kappa+2)}\).
