Functional calculus for semigroup generators via transference

In this article we apply a recently established transference principle in order to obtain the boundedness of certain functional calculi for semigroup generators. In particular, it is proved that if $-A$ generates a $C_0$-semigroup on a Hilbert space, then for each $τ>0$ the operator $A$ has a bounded calculus for the closed ideal of bounded holomorphic functions on a (sufficiently large) right half-plane that satisfy $f(z)=O(e^{-τ\textrm{Re}(z)})$ as $|z|\rightarrow \infty$. The bound of this calculus grows at most logarithmically as $τ\searrow 0$. As a consequence, $f(A)$ is a bounded operator for each holomorphic function $f$ (on a right half-plane) with polynomial decay at $\infty$. Then we show that each semigroup generator has a so-called (strong) $m$-bounded calculus for all $m\in\mathbb{N}$, and that this property characterizes semigroup generators. Similar results are obtained if the underlying Banach space is a UMD space. Upon restriction to so-called $γ$-bounded semigroups, the Hilbert space results actually hold in general Banach spaces.
