Controllability and observability for non-autonomous evolution equations: the averaged Hautus test

We consider the observability problem for non-autonomous evolution systems (i.e., the operators governing the system depend on time). We introduce an averaged Hautus condition and prove that for skew-adjoint operators it characterizes exact observability. Next, we extend this to more general class of operators under a growth condition on the associated evolution family. We give an application to the Schrödinger equation with time dependent potential and the damped wave equation with a time dependent damping coefficient.

The stochastic Weiss conjecture for bounded analytic semigroups

Suppose -A admits a bounded H-infinity calculus of angle less than pi/2 on a Banach space E with Pisier's property (alpha), let B be a bounded linear operator from a Hilbert space H into the extrapolation space E_{-1} of E with respect to A, and let W_H denote an H-cylindrical Brownian motion. Let gamma(H,E) denote the space of all gamma-radonifying operators from H to E. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (i) the stochastic Cauchy problem dU(t) = AU(t)dt + BdW_H(t) admits an invariant measure on E; (ii) (-A)^{-1/2} B belongs to gamma(H,E); (iii) the Gaussian sum \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} γ_n 2^{n/2} R(2^n,A)B converges in gamma(H,E) in probability. This solves the stochastic Weiss conjecture proposed recently by the second and third named authors.

A stochastic Datko-Pazy theorem

Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $E$ a Banach space. In this note we present a sufficient condition for an operator $R: H\to E$ to be $γ$--radonifying in terms of Riesz sequences in $H$. This result is applied to recover a result of Lutz Weis and the second named author on the $R$-boundedness of resolvents, which is used to obtain a Datko-Pazy type theorem for the stochastic Cauchy problem. We also present some perturbation results.
