A Sufficient condition for compactness of Hankel operators

Complex Variables 2023-08-02 v2 Functional Analysis

Abstract

Let Ω\Omega be a bounded convex domain in Cn\mathbb{C}^{n}. We show that if φC1(Ω)\varphi \in C^{1}(\overline{\Omega}) is holomorphic along analytic varieties in bΩb\Omega, then HφqH^{q}_{\varphi}, the Hankel operator with symbol φ\varphi, is compact. We have shown the converse earlier, so that we obtain a characterization of compactness of these operators in terms of the behavior of the symbol relative to analytic structure in the boundary. A corollary is that Toeplitz operators with these symbols are Fredholm (of index zero).
