The embedding theorems in anisotropic Besov-Lions type spacesBlp,θ(Rn;E
0,E) are
stud-ied; hereE0 and Eare two Banach spaces. The most regular spacesEαare found such
that the mixed differential operatorsDαare bounded fromBl
p,θ(Rn;E0,E) toBsq,θ(Rn;Eα),
whereEαare interpolation spaces betweenE0andEdepending onα=(α1,α2,. . .,αn) and
l=(l1,l2,. . .,ln). By using these results the separability of anisotropic differential-operator
equations with dependent coefficients in principal part and the maximal B-regularity of parabolic Cauchy problem are obtained. In applications, the infinite systems of the quasielliptic partial differential equations and the parabolic Cauchy problems are stud-ied.

1. Introduction
Embedding theorems in function spaces have been studied in [8,35,37,38]. A com-prehensive introduction to the theory of embedding of function spaces and historical references may be also found in [37]. In abstract function spaces embedding theorems have been investigated in [4,5,10,17,21,27,34,40]. Lions and Peetre [21] showed that if
u∈L2
0,T;H0
, u(m)∈L

then
u(i)∈L20,T;H,H0i/m, i=1, 2,. . .,m−1, (1.2)
whereH0,H are Hilbert spaces,H0is continuously and densely embedded inH, where
[H0,H]θare interpolation spaces betweenH0andH for 0≤θ≤1. The similar questions

spaces have been investigated in [28–31] and [23,24], respectively. Embedding theorems in Banach-valued Besov spaces have been studied in [4,5,27,32]. The solvability and spectrum of boundary value problems for elliptic differential-operator equations (DOE’s) have been refined in [3–7,13,28–33,39,40]. A comprehensive introduction to DOE’s and historical references may be found in [15,18,40]. In these works, Hilbert-valued function spaces essentially have been considered. The maximalLpregularity and Fredholmness of
partial elliptic equations in smooth regions have been studied, for example, in [1,2,20] and for nonsmooth domains studied, for example, in [16,26]. For DOE’s the similar problems have been investigated in [13,28–32,36,39,40].
LetE0,Ebe Banach spaces such thatE0is continuously and densely embedded inE.
In the present paper,E-valued Besov spacesBl+sp,θ(Rn;E
0,E)=Bsp,θ(Rn;E0)∩Bl+sp,θ(Rn;E) are
introduced and called Besov-Lions type spaces. The most regular interpolation classEα
betweenE0 and Eis found such that the appropriate mixed differential operatorsDα
are bounded fromBl+s
p,q(Rn;E0,E) toBsp,q(Rn;Eα). By applying these results the maximal
regularity of certain class of anisotropic partial DOE with varying coefficients in Banach-valued Besov spaces is derived.
The paper is organized as follows.Section 2collects notations and definitions.Section 3presents the embedding theorems in Besov-Lions type spaces
Bs+lp,qRn;E0,E
. (1.3)
Section 4contains applications of the underlying embedding theorem to vector-valued function spaces. Section 5is devoted to the maximal regularity (in Bs
p,q(Rn;E)) of the
certain class of anisotropic DOE with variable coefficients in principal part. Then by us-ing these results the maximalB-regularity of the parabolic Cauchy problem is shown. In
Section 6these DOE are applied to BVP’s and Cauchy problem for the finite and infinite systems of quasielliptic and parabolic PDEs, respectively.

LetE1andE2be two Banach spaces. A functionΨ∈Cm(Rn;L(E1,E2)) is called a
multi-plier fromBsp,θ(Rn;E

The set of all multipliers fromBs
p,θ(Rn;E1) toBsq,θ(Rn;E2) will be denoted byMq,θp,θ(s,E1,
E2).E1=E2=Ewill be denoted byMq,θp,θ(s,E). The multipliers and operator-valued
mul-tipliers in Banach-valued function spaces were studied, for example, by [25], [37, Section 2.2.2.], and [4,11,12,14,22], respectively.
Let
Hk=

be a collection of multipliers inMq,θp,θ(s,E1,E2). We say thatHkis a uniform collection of
multipliers if there exists a constantM0>0, independent onh∈K, such that

Remark 2.2. Definition 2.1is a combined restriction toE,p,q,θ, ands. This condition is sufficient for our main aim. Nevertheless, it is well known that there are Banach spaces satisfying theB-multiplier condition for isotropic case andp=q, for example, the UMD spaces (see [4,14]).
A Banach spaceEis said to have a local unconditional structure (l.u.st.) if there exists a constantC <∞such that for any finite-dimensional subspaceE0ofEthere exists a
finite-dimensional spaceFwith an unconditional basis such that the natural embeddingE0⊂E
factors asABwithB:E0→F,A:F→E, andAB ≤C. All Banach lattices (e.g.,Lp,
Lp,q, Orlicz spaces,C[0, 1]) have l.u.st.
The expressionuE1∼uE2means that there exist the positive constantsC1andC2
such that
C1uE1≤ uE2≤C2uE1 (2.20)

Consider in general, the anisotropic differential-operator equation

Aα(x)Dαu= f (2.22)
inBsp,θ(Rn;E), wherea
αare complex-valued functions andA(x),Aα(x) are possibly
un-bounded operators in a Banach spaceE, here the domain definitionD(A)=D(A(x)) of operatorA(x) does not depend onx. Forl1=l2=,. . .,=lnwe obtain isotropic equations
containing the elliptic class of DOE.
The function belonging to spaceBs+lp,θ(Rn;E(A),E) and satisfying (2.22) a.e. onRn is
said to be a solution of (2.22) onRn.
Definition 2.3. The problem (2.22) is said to be aB-separable (orBsp,θ(Rn;E)-separable) if
the problem (2.22) for all f ∈Bsp,θ(Rn;E) has a unique solutionu∈Bs+l

3. Embedding theorems
In this section we prove the boundedness of the mixed differential operatorsDα in the
Lemma3.1. LetAbe a positive operator in a Banach spaceE, letbbe a positive number, r=(r1,r2,. . .,rn),α=(α1,α2,. . .,αn), andl=(l1,l2,. . .,ln), whereϕ∈(0,π],rk∈[0,b],lk
are positive andαk,k=1, 2,. . .,n, are nonnegative integers such thatκ= |(α+r) :l| ≤1.
For0< h≤h0<∞and0≤μ≤1−κthe operator-function
Ψ(ξ)=Ψh,μ(ξ)=ξ1r1ξ2r2,. . .,ξnrn(iξ)αA1−κ−μh−μ
A+η(ξ)−1 (3.1)
is a bounded operator inEuniformly with respect toξandh, that is, there is a constantCμ
such that
Ψh,μ(ξ)
L(E)≤Cμ (3.2)
for allξ∈Rn, where
η=η(ξ)=

k=1
ξklk
+h−1. (3.3)
Proof. Since−η(ξ)∈S(ϕ), for allϕ∈(0,π] andAis aϕ-positive inE, then the operator A+η(ξ) is invertiable inE. Let
u=h−μA+η(ξ)−1f . (3.4)
Then
Ψ(ξ)f
E=(hA)1−κ−μuEh−(1−μ)h1/l1ξ1α1+r1,. . .,h1/lnξnαn+rn. (3.5)
Using the moment inequality for powers of positive operators, we get a constantCμ

E≤Cμh−(1−μ)hAu1−κ−μuκ+μh1/l1ξ1 α1+r1

Now, we apply the Young inequality, which states thatab≤ak1/k

By using the properties of the positive operatorAfor allf ∈Ewe obtain from (3.12) Ψ(ξ)f
E≤CμfE. (3.13)

Then the spacesBl+sp,θ(Rn;E)andWlBs
p,θ(Rn;E)are coincided.
Proof. In the first step we show that the continuous embeddingWlBs
p,θ(Rn;E)⊂Bl+sp,θ(Rn;
E) holds, that is, there is a positive constantCsuch that uBl+s
p,θ(Rn;E)≤CuWlB s

for allu∈WlBs
p,θ(Rn;E). For this aim by using the Fourier-analytic definition of an
E-valued Besov space and the space WlBs

estimate: F−1

Then in view of [41, Proposition 3] we obtain that the functionφis Fourier multiplier in Lp(Rn;E).
In the second step we prove that the embeddingBl+s
p,θ(Rn;E)⊂WlBsp,θ(Rn;E) is
contin-uous. In a similar way as in the first step we show that forsk/(lk+sk) +sj/(lj+sj)≤1 the

It implies the second embedding. This completes the prove ofLemma 3.2.
Theorem3.3. Suppose the following conditions hold:
(1)Eis a UMD space with l.u.st. satisfying theB-multiplier condition with respect to p,q∈(1,∞),θ∈[1,∞], ands=(s1,s2,. . .,sn), whereskare positive numbers;

(3)Ais aϕ-positive operator inE, whereϕ∈(0,π]and0< h≤h0<∞.
Then the following embedding

Proof. We have

q,θ(Rn;E) (3.24)
for allusuch that
Dαu Bs

A1−α−μDαu=F−FA1−κ−μDαu=F−(iξ)αA1−κ−μFu. (3.26)
Since the operatorAis closure and does not depend onξ∈Rnhence denotingFubyu,
from the relations (3.24), (3.26) and by definition of the spaceWlBs
p,θ(Rn;E0,E) we have

Repeating the above process we obtain the estimate (3.33). Thus the operator-function
Ψh,μ(ξ) is a uniform multiplier with respect toh, that is,
Ψh,μ∈HK⊂Mq,θp,θ(s,E), K=R+. (3.36)
This completes the proof ofTheorem 3.3.
Result 3.4. Let all conditions ofTheorem 3.3hold. Then for allu∈Bl+s
p,θ(Rn;E(A),E) we
have a multiplicative estimate Dαu

q,θ(Rn;E(A1−κ−μ))≤Cμu

p,θ(Rn;E)· u −1 Bl+s
p,θ(Rn;E(A),E)in the estimate (3.23) we obtain the above estimate.
Remark 3.5. It seems from the proof ofTheorem 3.3that the extra condition to space E(Eis UMD space with l.u.st.) and the conditionsk/(lk+sk) +sj/(lj+sj)≤1 fork,j=
1, 2,. . .,nare due toLemma 3.2(here the l.u.st. condition for the spaceEis required due to using of Marcinkiewicz-Lizorkin type multiplier theorem [41] inLp(Rn;E) space).
There-fore, the proof ofTheorem 3.3implies the following.
Result 3.6. Suppose the following conditions hold:
(1)Eis a Banach space satisfying theB-multiplier condition with respect to p,q∈ (1,∞),θ∈[1,∞] ands=(s1,s2,. . .,sn), whereskare positive numbers;
(2)α=t(α1,α2,. . .,αn),l=(l1,l2,. . .,ln), whereαkare nonnegative andlk are positive
Then the following embedding
DαWlBs p,θ
Rn;E(A),E⊂Bs q,θ
Rn;EA1−κ−μ (3.38)
is continuous and there exists a positive constantCμdepending only onμsuch that
Dαu Bs

(3.39)
for allu∈WlBs
p,θ(Rn;E(A),E).
Remark 3.7. The conditionsk/(lk+sk) +sj/(lj+sj)≤1 fork,j=1, 2,. . .,ninTheorem 3.3
arise due to anisotropic nature of spaceBsp,θ. For an isotropic case the above conditions hold without any assumptions.
4. Application to vector-valued function spaces
By virtue ofTheorem 3.3we obtain the following.
Result 4.1. ForA=I we obtain the continuous embeddingDαBl+s
p,θ(Rn;E)⊂Bsp,θ(Rn;E)
and corresponding estimate (3.23) for 0≤μ≤1−κin spaceBs+lp,θ(Rn;E).
Result 4.2. ForE=Rm,A=Iwe obtain the following embeddingDαBl+s
p,θ(Rn;Rm)⊂Bsq,θ(Rn;
Rm) for 0≤μ≤1−κ and a corresponding estimate (3.23). For E=R, A=I we get
the embeddingDαBl+s
p,θ(Rn)⊂Bsq,θ(Rn) proved in [8, Section 18] for the numerical Besov
spaces.
Result 4.3. Letl1=l2= ··· =ln=m,s1=s2= ··· =sn=σ, and p=q. Then for allE
∈UMD and|α| ≤mwe obtain that the continuous embeddingDαBσ+m
p,θ (Rn;E(A),E)⊂
Bσ
p,θ(Rn;E(A1−|α|/m)) and a corresponding estimate (3.23) for the isotropic Besov-Lions
spacesBσ+m
p,θ (Rn;E(A),E).
Result 4.4. Letσbe a positive number. Consider the following space [37, Section 1.18.2]:
lqσ=u;u=ui
,i=1, 2,. . .,∞,ui∈C
(4.1)
with the norm

Note thatl0
q=lq. LetAbe an infinite matrix defined inlqsuch that
D(A)=lqσ, A=δi j2si, (4.3)
where δi j=0, when i= j,δi j =1, when i= j, i,j=1, 2,. . .,∞. It is clear to see that
this operatorAis positive inlq. Then fromTheorem 3.3forsk/(lk+sk) +sj/(lj+sj)≤1,
k,j=1, 2,. . .,nand 0≤μ≤1−κ,κ=n
k=1(αk+ 1/ p1−1/ p2)/lk we obtain the
contin-uous embeddingDαBl+s p1,θ(Ω;l
σ
q,lq)⊂Bsp2,θ(Ω;l σ(1−κ−μ)
q ) and the corresponding estimate
It should not be that the above embedding has not been obtained with a classical method until now.
5. MaximalB-regular DOE inRn
Consider the following differential-operator equation
(L+λ)u= |α:.l|=1
aα(x)Dαu+Aλ(x)u+
|α:.l|<1
Aα(x)Dαu= f (5.1)
inBs
p,q(Rn;E), whereA(x),Aα(x) are possible unbounded operators in a Banach spaceE,
akare complex-valued functions,l=(l1,l2,. . .,ln) andliare positive integers. The
max-imal regularity for DOE was investigated, for example, in [12,14,30]. Let us consider DOE with constant coefficients
L0+λ
u=
|α:.l|=1
bαDαu+Aλu=f, (5.2)
whereAis a possible unbounded operator inE,Aλ=A+λandbαare complex numbers. Theorem5.1. Suppose the following conditions hold:
(1)E is UMD space with l.u.st. satisfyingB-multiplier condition with respect to p∈ (1,∞),q∈[1,∞], ands=(s1,s2,. . .,sn), whereskare positive numbers;
(2)Ais aϕ-positive operator inEwithϕ∈(0,π]and

(5.3)
(3)sk/(lk+sk) +sj/(lj+sj)≤1fork,j=1, 2,. . .,n.
Then for all f ∈Bs
p,q(Rn;E), for|argλ| ≤π−ϕand sufficiently large|λ|>0(5.2) has
a unique solution u(x)that belongs to space Bl+s
p,q(Rn;E(A),E), and the coercive uniform
estimate
|α:.l|≤1
|λ|1−|α:.l|Dαu Bs
p,q+AuBsp,q≤CfBsp,q (5.4)
holds with respect to the parameterλ.
Proof. By applying the Fourier transform to (5.2) we obtain
K(ξ) +Aλ
ˆ
u(ξ)= fˆ(ξ). (5.5)
SinceK(ξ)∈S(ϕ) for allξ∈Rn, the operatorA+ [λ+K(ξ)] is invertible inE. So, we
obtain that the solution of (5.5) can be represented in the form
By using (5.6) we have

(5.7)
Hence, it is suffices to show that the operator-functions
σ1λ(ξ)=
A+λ+K(ξ)−1,
σ2λ(ξ)= |λ|1−|α:.l|iξ1α1·iξ2α2,. . .,iξnαnA+λ+K(ξ)−1
(5.8)
are multipliers inBs
p,q(Rn;E) uniformly with respect toλ. Firstly, by using the positivity
properties of operatorAwe obtain that the operator functionσλ(ξ) is bounded uniformly
with respect toλ. That is,
σjλ(ξ)
B(E)≤C, j=1, 2. (5.9)
Then by virtue of the same properties of the operatorAwe obtain from (5.9) ξβDβ
ξσjλ(ξ)L(E)≤Mj, β∈Un,ξ∈Vn, j=1, 2. (5.10)
Then in view of (5.10) we obtain that the operator-valued functionsσjλ(ξ) are the
uniform collection of multipliers fromBs
p,q(Rn;E) toBsp,q(Rn;E). So we get that for all f ∈
Bs
p,q(Rn;E) there is a unique solution of (5.2) in the formu(x)=F−1[A+ (λ+K(ξ))]−1fˆ
and the estimate (5.4) holds.
Consider the problem (5.1). Let L0 and L operators in Bsp,q(Rn;E) be generated by
problems (5.2) and (5.1), respectively, that is,
DL0

Then for all f ∈Bs
p,q(Rn;E),|argλ| ≤π−ϕand for sufficiently large|λ| (5.1) has a

p,q+AuBsp,q≤CfBsp,q (5.12)
holds with respect toλ.
Proof. Letϕj∈C0∞(Rn), j=1, 2,. . .,∞, be a partition of unity such that 0≤ϕj≤1 and
suppϕj⊂Gj,jϕj(x)=1. Letgj∈C∞(Rn) such thatgj(x)≡1 on suppϕj. Then for all
u∈Bl+s
p,q(Rn;E(A),E) we haveu(x)=
juj(x), whereuj(x)=u(x)ϕj(x). From the
equal-ity (5.1) foru∈Bl+s
p,q(Rn;E(A),E) we obtain
(L+λ)uj=
|α:.l|=1
aα(x)Dαuj+Aλ(y)uj(y)= fj(y), (5.13)
where
fj=f ϕj−
|α:.l|<1

|α:.l|<1
Aα(x)Dαuj (5.14)
andbα j(x) are continuous and uniformly bounded functions containing derivatives of

r0(0). CoverBr0(0) by finitely many ballsGj=Brj(xj) such that|aα(x)−aα(xj)| ≤δ for all|x−xj| ≤rj,j=1, 2,. . .,N. Define coefficients of the local operatorsLjas in [12,

for each j=1, 2,. . .,N. Then|aα(x)−aα(xj)| ≤δ for all x∈Rn and j=0, 1, 2,. . .,N.
Freezing the coefficients in (5.13) we obtain that

By virtue ofTheorem 5.1we obtain that the problem (5.16) has a unique solutionuj,

p,q(Gj;E)+AujBsp,q(Gj;E)≤CFjBs p,q

Whence, using properties of the smoothness of coefficients of (5.14), (5.17) and choos-ing diameters ofGjsufficiently small, we get that

p,q(Gj;E)≤εujBsp+,ql(Gj;E(A),E)+C(ε)ujBsp,q(Gj;E), (5.19) whereεis a sufficiently small function andC(δ) is a continuous function. Consequently, from (5.18) and (5.19) we get
|α:.l|≤1
|λ|1−|α:.l|Dαu jBs
p,q(Gj;E)≤CfBsp,q(Gj;E)+δujBs+l
p,q+C(δ)ujBsp,q(Gj;E). (5.20)
Choosingδ <1 from the above inequality we have
|α:.l|≤1
|λ|1−|α:.l|Dαu jBs
p,q(Gj;E)≤C

Then by using the equalityu(x)=juj(x) and by virtue of the estimate (5.21) foru∈

|α:.l|≤1
|λ|1−|α:.l|Dαu jBs
p,q≤C(L+λ)uBsp,q. (5.24)
The above estimate implies that the problem (5.1) has a unique solution and the op-erator (L+λ) has an invertible operator in its rank space. We need to show that this rank space coincide with the spaceBs
p,q(Rn;E). Let us construct for allj the functionuj, that

Extendingujzero on the outside of suppϕjin equalities (5.25) and passing
substitu-tionsuj=O−jλ1υjwe obtain operator equations with respect toυj:
υj=Kjλυj+gjf, j=1, 2,. . .,N. (5.27)
By virtue ofTheorem 3.3and the estimate (5.26), in view of the smoothness of the coefficients of the expressionKjλfor|argλ| ≤π−ϕand sufficiently large |λ|we have
Kjλ< ε, whereεis sufficiently small. Consequently, (5.27) has a unique solutionυj=

p,q=I−Kjλ −1
gjfBs
p,q≤ fBsp,q. (5.28) Whence, [I−Kjλ]−1gj are the bounded linear operators fromBsp,q(Rn;E) toBsp,q(Gj;E).
Thus, we obtain that the functionsuj=Ujλf =O−jλ1[I−Kjλ]−1gjf are the solutions of
(5.25). Consider a linear operator (U+λI)=jϕj(y)Ujλf inBsp,q(Rn;E). It is clear from
the constructionsUj and the estimate (5.26) that the operatorsUjλare bounded linear
fromBs
p,q(Rn;E) toBs+lp,q(Rn;E(A),E) and

p,q≤CfBsp,q, (5.29)
for |argλ| ≤π−ϕ and sufficiently large |λ|. Therefore, (U+λI) is a bounded linear operator fromBs

jϕjUjλf gives (L+λ)u=
f +jΦjλf, whereΦjλ are linear combinations of Ujλ and (d/d y)Ujλ. By virtue of Theorem 3.3, by estimate (5.29), and from the expressionΦjλwe obtain that operators
Φjλare bounded linear fromBsp,q(Rn;E) toBsp,q(Gj;E) andΦjλ< δ. Therefore, there
exists a bounded linear invertible operator

Theorem5.5. Let all conditions ofTheorem 5.2hold forϕ∈(0,π/2). Then the parabolic Cauchy problem (2.24) for|argλ| ≤π−ϕand sufficiently large|λ|is maximalB-regular. Proof. The problem (2.24) can be expressed inBsp,θ(R+;F) in the following form:
du(y)
d y + (L+λ)u(y)= f(t), u(0)=0, y >0, (5.35) whereF=Lp(G;E) andLis the differential operator inBsp,θ(Rn;E) generated by the
prob-lem (5.1). In view ofResult 4.3the operatorLis positive inBs

Then by virtue of [4, Corollary 8.9] we obtain the assertion.

It is clear to see that operatorAis positive inlq. Therefore, by virtue ofTheorem 5.2we
