β¦ Synopsis
These notes represent a course of lectures delivered at the Australian National University in the second semester of 1982 as part of the mathematics honours programme. Most of the material contained in the notes is standard although a few new refinements and variations are included. The course consisted of twenty six one-hour lectures and this sufficed to present about ninety five per cent of the content of the notes.

The theory of semigroups of operators was initiated by E. Hille in his monograph ``Functional Analysis and Semigroups'' which appeared in 1948. In the years thereafter the theory was developed further by W. Feller, T. Kato, R.S. Phillips, K. Yosida and many others. The possible range of applications

The book is organized as follows. We concentrate our attention on three subjects of semigroup theory: characterization, spectral theory and asymptotic behavior. By characterization , we understand the problem of describing special properties of a semigroup, such as positivity, through the generator.
