On spectral inclusion and mapping theorems for scalar type spectral operators and semigroups

Abstract: We establish spectral inclusion and mapping theorems for scalar type spectral operators, generalizing their counterparts for normal operators. Thereby, we extend a precise weak spectral mapping theorem, known to hold for $C_0$-semigroups of normal operators on complex Hilbert spaces, to the more general case of $C_0$-semigroups of scalar type spectral operators on complex Banach spaces. The finer spectrum structure is given itemized consideration.
