How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Restriction to a closed invariant subspace is a C0-semigroup and its generator is the part

Statement

Assume Countable Choice (The Axiom of Countable Choice (ACω)) for the Lebesgue-measure interfaces. Let (T(t))t≥0 be a strongly continuous semigroup on a Banach space X with generator (A,D(A)), and let Y⊆X be a closed linear subspace (Normed subspace, A closed subspace of a Banach space is Banach) such that T(t)Y⊆Y for every t≥0. Then the restrictions TY(t):=T(t)∣Y form a strongly continuous semigroup on the Banach space Y, and its generator is the part AY of A in Y: D(AY)={y∈D(A)∩Y: Ay∈Y} and AYy=Ay. In particular the generator of the restricted semigroup is the restriction of A to that domain.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Countable Choice; A strongly continuous semigroup (T(t))t≥0 on a Banach space X with generator (A,D(A)) (Strongly continuous semigroup, Infinitesimal generator of a C0-semigroup), and a closed linear subspace Y⊆X with T(t)Y⊆Y for every t≥0.

[F1]

A closed linear subspace of a Banach space is a Banach space for the restricted norm (A closed subspace of a Banach space is Banach, Normed subspace), and convergence in the norm of Y is the same as convergence in X for vectors of Y.

[F2]

The generator is defined by right difference quotients: y∈D(A) exactly when T(h)y−yh converges as h↓0, and then the limit is Ay (Infinitesimal generator of a C0-semigroup).

[F3]

Time integrals of orbits lie in the generator domain: for y∈X and t>0 the Bochner integral Jty=∫0tT(s)y ds satisfies Jty∈D(A) and AJty=T(t)y−y (Time integrals of semigroup orbits lie in the generator domain, Bochner-integrable function).

Proof

technique · direct: inheritance of the semigroup properties, then comparison of the two difference-quotient limits through the closed subspace
1.1F1

The restrictions TY(t):=T(t)∣Y are bounded linear maps of Y into itself by hypothesis, with TY(0)=IY and TY(t+s)=TY(t)TY(s) inherited from T. For each y∈Y the orbit t↦TY(t)y is continuous into Y, because it is continuous into X and the norm of Y is the restriction of the norm of X by [F1]; hence TY is a strongly continuous semigroup on the Banach space Y.

1.2F1F2

Let B denote the generator of TY. If y∈D(A)∩Y and Ay∈Y, then T(t)y∈Y for all t, so the difference quotients TY(h)y−yh=T(h)y−yh lie in Y and converge in X to Ay∈Y; by [F1] they converge in Y to Ay. Therefore y∈D(B) and By=Ay.

1.3F1F2

Conversely, if y∈D(B), then by definition TY(h)y−yh→By in Y, hence also in X by [F1]; the same vectors are the difference quotients of T, so y∈D(A) and Ay=By. In particular Ay=By∈Y, so D(B)⊆{y∈D(A)∩Y:Ay∈Y}.

2.1F1F3step 1.2step 1.3∎

The two inclusions give D(B)={y∈D(A)∩Y:Ay∈Y} with By=Ay, that is, the generator of TY is the part AY of A in Y; for reference, this domain is dense in Y, since for y∈Y and t>0 the integral Jty lies in D(A)∩Y with AJty=T(t)y−y∈Y by [F3] and the Y-valued Bochner integral stays in the closed subspace Y, while 1tJty→y as t↓0.
