We construct normed spaces of real-valued functions with controlled growth on possibly infinite-dimensional state spaces such that semigroups of positive, bounded operators $(P_t)_{t\ge 0}$ thereon with $\lim_{t\to 0+}P_t f(x)=f(x)$ are in fact strongly continuous. This result applies to prove optimal rates of converge…
