Abstract

We characterize generators of sub-Markovian semigroups onLp(Ω) by a version of Kato's inequality. This will be used to show (under precise assumptions) that the semigroup generated by a matrix operatorA=(Aij)1≦i,j≦n on (Lp(Ω))n is sub-Markovian if and only if the semigroup generated by the sum of each rowAi1+...+Ain (1≦i≦n), is sub-Markovian. The corresponding result on (C0(X))n characterizes dissipative operator matrices.
