Power bounds for contraction-semigroup resolvents #
This file proves the contraction case of the iterated Hille--Yosida estimate. If S is a
contraction semigroup and lambda > 0, then every natural power of its Laplace-transform
resolvent satisfies
‖R(lambda)^n‖ ≤ lambda⁻ⁿ.
The corresponding pointwise estimate and the equivalent bound for the scaled resolvent
lambda R(lambda) are also recorded. These estimates are the contraction specialization of
the power bounds used in the Hille--Yosida generation theorem.
