Abstract

In this paper, we study the stability properties of strongly continuous semigroups generated by block operator matrices. We consider triangular and full operator matrices whose diagonal operator blocks generate polynomially stable semigroups. As our main results, we present conditions under which also the semigroup generated by the operator matrix is polynomially stable. The theoretical results are used to derive conditions for the polynomial stability of a system consisting of a two-dimensional and a one-dimensional damped wave equation.
