Noncommutative harmonic analysis on semigroups and ultracontractivity

Abstract: We extend some classical results of Cowling and Meda to the noncommutative setting. Let

(T_{t})_{t > 0}

be a symmetric contraction semigroup on a noncommutative space

L_{p} (m a t h c a l M),

and let the functions

p h i

and

p s i

be regularly related. We prove that the semigroup

(T_{t})_{t > 0}

is

p h i

-ultracontractive, i.e.

| T_{t} x |_{i} n f t y l e q C p h i (t)^{- 1} | x |_{1}

for all

x i n L_{1} (m a t h c a l M)

and

t > 0

if and only if its infinitesimal generator

L

has the Sobolev embedding properties:

| p s i (L)^{- a l p h a} x |_{q} l e q C^{'} | x |_{p}

for all

x i n L_{p} (m a t h c a l M),

where

1 < p < q < i n f t y

and

a l p h a = f r a c 1 p - f r a c 1 q .

We establish some noncommutative spectral multiplier theorems and maximal function estimates for generator of

p h i

-ultracontractive semigroup. We also show the equivalence between

p h i

-ultracontractivity and logarithmic Sobolev inequality for some special

p h i

. Finally, we gives some results on local ultracontractivity.
