how that if L is a second-order uniformly elliptic operator in divergence f
orm on R-d, then C-1(1+\alpha\)(d/2) less than or equal to parallel toL(i a
lpha)parallel to (L1--> L1,infinity) less than or equal to C-2(1+\alpha\)(d
/2). We also prove that the upper bounds remain true for any operator with
the finite speed propagation property.
