Sandwiching C0-Semigroups

Let T = {T(t)}_t0 be a C₀-semigroup on a Banach space X. Thefollowing results are proved. (i) If X is separable, there exist separable Hilbert spacesX₀ and X₁, continuous dense embeddings j₀:X₀ X and j₁:X X₁,and C₀-semigroups T₀ and T₁ on X₀ and X₁ respectively, suchthat j₀ T₀(t) = T(t) j₀ and T₁(t) j₁ = j₁ T(t) for all t 0. (ii) If T is -reflexive, there exist reflexive Banach spacesX₀ and X₁ , continuous dense embeddings j:D(A²) X₀, j₀:X₀ X, j₁:X X₁, and C₀-semigroups T₀ and T₁ on X₀ and X₁ respectively,such that T₀(t) j = j T(t), j₀ T₀(t) = T(t) j₀ and T(t) j₁ = j₁ T(t) for all t 0, and such that (A₀) = (A) = (A₁),where A_k is the generator of T_k, k = 0, Ø, 1.     

The Callan-Symanzik equation and dimensional regularization

A study is made of the Callan-Symanzik equation using the dimensional regularization method. The final equation is far more general than in the usual derivation in that the effect of mass terms is explicitly included; moreover the momenta need not be restricted to the deep-Euclidean region when considering asymptotic limits.     

Infrared behaviour of on shell form factors in anN=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills field theory

We discuss the infrared and mass singular behaviour of some on shell form factors which are calculated up to the two loop level in anN=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills field theory. One of the outcomes of our investigation is that the finite terms in the perturbation series of the form factor are determined by exponentiating the lowest order term. The same phenomeno has been discovered in some infrared and mass finite quantities.     

Conical stochastic maximal L^p-regularity for 1\leqslant p<\infty

Let \(A = -\mathrm{div} \,a(\cdot ) \nabla \) be a second order divergence form elliptic operator on \({\mathbb R}^n\) with bounded measurable real-valued coefficients and let \(W\) be a cylindrical Brownian motion in a Hilbert space \(H\) . Our main result implies that the stochastic convolution process $$\begin{aligned} u(t) = \int _0^t e^{-(t-s)A}g(s)\,dW(s), \quad t\geqslant 0, \end{aligned}$$ satisfies, for all \(1\leqslant p<\infty \) , a conical maximal \(L^p\) -regularity estimate $$\begin{aligned} {\mathbb E}\Vert \nabla u \Vert _{ T_2^{p,2}({\mathbb R}_+\times {\mathbb R}^n)}^p \leqslant C_p^p {\mathbb E}\Vert g \Vert _{ T_2^{p,2}({\mathbb R}_+\times {\mathbb R}^n;H)}^p. \end{aligned}$$ Here, \(T_2^{p,2}({\mathbb R}_+\times {\mathbb R}^n)\) and \(T_2^{p,2}({\mathbb R}_+\times {\mathbb R}^n;H)\) are the parabolic tent spaces of real-valued and \(H\) -valued functions, respectively. This contrasts with Krylov’s maximal \(L^p\) -regularity estimate $$\begin{aligned} {\mathbb E}\Vert \nabla u \Vert _{L^p({\mathbb R}_+;L^2({\mathbb R}^n;{\mathbb R}^n))}^p \leqslant C^p {\mathbb E}\Vert g \Vert _{L^p({\mathbb R}_+;L^2({\mathbb R}^n;H))}^p \end{aligned}$$ which is known to hold only for \(2\leqslant p<\infty \) , even when \(A = -\Delta \) and \(H = {\mathbb R}\) . The proof is based on an \(L^2\) -estimate and extrapolation arguments which use the fact that \(A\) satisfies suitable off-diagonal bounds. Our results are applied to obtain conical stochastic maximal \(L^p\) -regularity for a class of nonlinear SPDEs with rough initial data.

Order αs corrections to intermediate boson masses

We present the order α_s corrections to the masses of the Z and W bosons in the standard model. For the low mass quarks u, d, c and s the corrections are small and positive. Due to the Coulomb singularity which appears in the vector boson self-energy graph with one gluon exchange, we find a negative contribution from the t, b doublets.     

On the action of Lipschitz functions on vector-valued random sums

Let X be a Banach space and let (ξ_j)_j ≧ 1 be an i.i.d. sequence of symmetric random variables with finite moments of all orders. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent:
