Abstract

We define and analyze Lipschitz spaces ℬα,q associated with a representationxgV(x) of the Lie algebrag by closed operatorsV(x) on the Banach space ℬ together with a heat semigroupS. If the action ofS satisfies certain minimal smoothness hypotheses with respect to the differential structure of (ℬ,g,V) then the Lipschitz spaces support representations ofg for which productsV(x)V(y) are relatively bounded by the Laplacian generatingS. These regularity properties of the ℬα,q can then be exploited to obtain improved smoothness properties ofS on ℬ. In particularC 4-estimates on the action ofS automatically implyC -estimates. Finally we use these results to discuss integrability criteria for (ℬ,g,V).
