Abstract:
Suppose that 1 < p < ∞, (Ω,μ) is a σ-finite measure space and E is a closed subspace of a Lebesgue-Bochner space Lp(Ω;X), consisting of functions on Ω that take their values in some complex Banach space X. Suppose also that -A is invertible and generates a bounded holomorphic semigroup {Tz} on E. If 0 < α < 1 and ƒ belongs to the domain of Aα then the maximal function supz || Tzƒ||X, where the supremum is taken over any given sector contained in the sector of holomorphy, belongs to Lp. This extends an earlier result of Blower and Doust.
