NON-AUTONOMOUS KATO CLASSES AND FEYNMAN-KAC PROPAGATORS
NON-AUTONOMOUS KATO CLASSES AND FEYNMAN-KAC PROPAGATORS

by Archil Gulisashvili (Ohio University, USA) & Jan A van Casteren (University of Antwerp, Belgium)

This book provides an introduction to propagator theory. Propagators, or evolution families, are two-parameter analogues of semigroups of operators. Propagators are encountered in analysis, mathematical physics, partial differential equations, and probability theory. They are often used as mathematical models of systems evolving in a changing environment. A unifying theme of the book is the theory of Feynman-Kac propagators associated with time-dependent measures from non-autonomous Kato classes. In applications, a Feynman-Kac propagator describes the evolution of a physical system in the presence of time-dependent absorption and excitation. The book is suitable as an advanced textbook for graduate courses.

Contents:

  • Transition Functions and Markov Processes
  • Propagators: General Theory
  • Non-Autonomous Kato Classes of Measures
  • Feynman-Kac Propagators
  • Some Theorems of Analysis and Probability Theory
