Non-Archimedean Pseudo-Differential Operators With Bessel Potentials

Abstract

In this article, we study a class of non-archimedean pseudo-differential operators associated via Fourier transform to the Bessel potentials. These operators (which we will denote as $J^{\alpha },$ $\alpha >n$) are of the form (J^{α})(x)=\mathcal{F}_{ξ\rightarrow x}^{-1}\left[ (\max\{1,||ξ||_{p}\})^{-α}\widehat{φ}(ξ)\right] ,\text{ } φ\in \mathcal{D}\mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n}),\text{ } x\in\mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n}. We show that the fundamental solution $Z(x,t)$ of the $p-$adic heat equation naturally associated to these operators satisfies $Z(x,t)<= 0,x\in\mathbb{Q} _{p}^{n},t>0. So this equation describes the cooling (or loss of heat) in a given region over time. Unlike the archimedean classical theory, although the operator symbol -J^{α} is not a function negative definite, we show that the operator -J^{α} satisfies the positive maximum principle on C_{0}(\mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n}). Moreover, we will show that the closure \overline{-J^{α}} of the operator -J^{α} is single-valued and generates a strongly continuous, positive, contraction semigroup {T(t)} on C_{0}(\mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n}). On the other hand, we will show that the operator -J^{α} is m-dissipative and is the infinitesimal generator of a C_{0}-semigroup of contractions T(t), t>= 0, on L^{2}(\mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n}). The latter will allow us to show that for f\in L^{1}([0,T):L^{2}(\mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n})), the function u(t)=T(t)u_{0}+\int\nolimits_{0}^{t}T(t-s)f(s)ds,\text{ \ \ }0<=t <=T, is the mild solution of the initial value problem \frac{\partial u}{\partial t}(x,t)=-J^{α}u(x,t)+f(t) & t>0\text{,\ } x\in \mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n} \\ u(x,0)=u_{0}\in L^{2}(\mathbb{Q}_{p}^{n})\text{.}
