The Laplace-transform resolvent is the resolvent of the generator #
This file proves that the Laplace-transform resolvent is also a left inverse of
lambda • I - A on the generator domain. Together with the right-inverse identity from
TauCeti/Analysis/Semigroups/Resolvent/Basic.lean that identifies it as the resolvent of the
generator in the unbounded sense of
TauCeti/Analysis/Normed/Operator/Resolvent/Unbounded.lean:
StronglyContinuousSemigroup.generator_resolvent_eq says
LinearPMap.resolvent S.generator lambda = S.resolvent hb lambda hlambda for lambda beyond
the growth exponent.
Everything else here is read off that bridge. The resolvent identity
R(lambda) - R(mu) = (mu - lambda) R(lambda) R(mu) and commutativity of resolvents are the
abstract LinearPMap.resolvent_sub_resolvent and LinearPMap.resolvent_comm transported along
it, rather than separate arguments; the identity is recorded both for resolvent and for
resolventFun, the resolvent seen as a function of the spectral parameter alone. The bridge
also transports the Laplace-transform norm estimate to the abstract resolvent:
‖R(lambda, A)‖ ≤ M / (lambda - omega). The sharp power estimate is proved from the integral
power formula in TauCeti/Analysis/Semigroups/Resolvent/PowerBounds.lean.

The argument follows Engel--Nagel, One-Parameter Semigroups for Linear Evolution Equations,
Theorem II.1.10: integration of the derivative of exp (-lambda * t) • S(t)x gives the
left-inverse formula, from which the algebraic resolvent identity follows. The generation
estimates are Theorem II.3.5 there.
The Laplace-transform resolvent is a left inverse to lambda • I - A on the generator
domain: R(lambda) (lambda x - A x) = x.
The bridge to the resolvent of the generator #
For a C₀-semigroup with growth bound (omega, M) and lambda > omega, the
Laplace-transform resolvent R(lambda) x = ∫₀^∞ e^{-λt} S(t) x dt inverts lambda • I - A for
the generator A: it lands in D(A) (StronglyContinuousSemigroup.resolvent_mem_domain) and
is a two-sided inverse there (StronglyContinuousSemigroup.resolventRightInv,
StronglyContinuousSemigroup.resolventLeftInv).
Every lambda beyond the growth exponent lies in the resolvent set of the generator.
The half-line (omega, ∞) lies in the resolvent set of the generator — the hypothesis hres
of the Hille--Yosida generation theorem, here in its (already available) converse direction.

Pointwise form of the resolvent identity
R(lambda) - R(mu) = (mu - lambda) R(lambda) R(mu); the abstract
