THE OPERATOR a(x) d dx ON BANACH SPACE Introduction and PDF S0002-9939-97-03564-8.pdf

to reconsider it in the subspace of C0(−∞, ∞) containing all even functions, and show that it generates a strongly continuous semigroup It is interesting that our

So d/dx x = 1 + x d/dx Since A B are operators rather than numbers, they don't necessarily commute If two operators A B commute, then AB = BA and their
