Abstract

Let T(L(T))\mathscr{T}(L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T})) be the Toeplitz algebra, that is, the CC^*-algebra generated by the set {Tϕ:ϕL(T)}\{T_{\phi} : \phi\in L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T})\}. Douglas's theorem on symbol map states that there exists a CC^*-algebra homomorphism from T(L(T))\mathscr{T}(L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T})) onto L(T)L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T}) such that TϕϕT_{\phi}\mapsto \phi and the kernel of the homomorphism coincides with commutator ideal in T(L(T))\mathscr{T}(L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T})). In this paper, we use the Berezin transform to study results akin to Douglas's theorem for operators on the Hardy space H2(Dn)H^2(\mathbb{D}^n) over the open unit polydisc Dn\mathbb{D}^n for n1n\geq 1. We further obtain a class of bigger CC^*-algebras than the Toeplitz algebra T(L(Tn))\mathscr{T}(L^{\infty}(\mathbb{T}^n)) for which the analog of symbol map still holds true.
