Abstract
We study semigroups generated by accretive non-selfadjoint quadratic differential operators. We give a description of the polar decomposition of the associated evolution operators as products of a selfadjoint operator and a unitary operator. The selfadjoint parts turn out to be also evolution operators generated by time-dependent real-valued quadratic forms that are studied in details. As a byproduct of this decomposition, we give a geometric description of the regularizing properties of semigroups generated by accretive non-selfadjoint quadratic operators. Finally, by using the interpolation theory, we take advantage of this smoothing effect to establish subelliptic estimates enjoyed by quadratic operators.
