Composition operators within singly generated composition C*-algebras

Abstract

Let ϕ\phi be a linear-fractional self map of the open unit disk, not an automorphism, such that ϕ(ζ)=η\phi(\zeta)=\eta for distinct points ζ,η\zeta,\eta in the unit circle. We consider the question of which composition operators lie in the unital C*-algebra generated by the composition operator CϕC_{\phi} and the ideal of compact operators, acting on the Hardy space H2H^2.
