Logarithmic stability estimates for initial data in Ornstein-Uhlenbeck equation on $L^2$-space

Abstract

In this paper, we continue the investigation on the connection between observability and inverse problems for a class of parabolic equations with unbounded first order coefficients. We prove new logarithmic stability estimates for a class of initial data in the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck equation posed on $L^2\left({\mathbb{R}}^N\right)$ with respect to the Lebesgue measure. The proofs combine observability and logarithmic convexity results that include a non-analytic semigroup case. This completes the picture of the recent results obtained for the analytic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup on $L^2$-space with invariant measure.
