We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a weighted composition operator to be co-isometric on a general weighted Hardy space of analytic functions in the unit disk whose reproducing kernel has the usual natural form. This turns…
For 0 < s < 1, let phi_s(z)=sz+(1-s). We investigate the unital C*-algebra generated by the semigroup {C_{phi_s} : 0 < s < 1} of composition operators acting on the Hardy space of the unit disk. We determine the joint approximate point…
A characterization of those points in the unit disc which belong to the spectrum of a composition operator $C_{\varphi}$, defined by a rotation $\varphi(z)=rz$ with $|r|=1$, on the space $H_0(\mathbb{D})$ of all analytic functions on the…
We show that every non-compact weighted composition operator $f \mapsto u\cdot (f\circ\phi)$ acting on a Hardy space $H^p$ for $1 \leq p < \infty$ fixes an isomorphic copy of the sequence space $\ell^p$ and therefore fails to be strictly…
In this paper, we explore the complex symmetrical characteristics of weighted composition operators $W_{u, v}$ and weighted composition-differentiation operators $W_{u, v, k_1, k_2, \ldots, k_n}$ on the Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb{D}^n)$ over…
In this paper we initiate the study of composition operators on the noncommutative Hardy space $H^2_{\bf ball}$. Several classical results about composition operators (boundedness, norm estimates, spectral properties, compactness,…
Let g be an analytic function on the open unit disc U such that g(U) is contained in U, and let h be an analytic function on U such that the weighted composition operator W_{h,g) defined by W_{h,g}f = h f(g) is bounded on the Hardy space…
We prove that the weighted composition operator $W_{\phi,\varphi}$ fixes an isomorphic copy of $\ell^p$ if the operator $W_{\phi,\varphi}$ is not compact on the derivative Hardy space $S^p$. In particular, this implies that the strict…
We give examples of results on composition operators connected with lens maps. The first two concern the approximation numbers of those operators acting on the usual Hardy space $H^2$. The last ones are connected with Hardy-Orlicz and…
The boundedness and compactness of weighted composition operators on the Hardy space ${\mathcal H}^2$ of the unit disc is analysed. Particular reference is made to the case when the self-map of the disc is an inner function. Schatten-class…
Suppose $n\geq 3$ and let $B$ be the open unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Let $\varphi: B\to B$ be a $C^2$ map whose Jacobian does not change sign, and let $\psi$ be a $C^2$ function on $B$. We characterize bounded weighted composition…
It is well known that on the Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb{D})$ or weighted Bergman space $A^2_{\alpha}(\mathbb{D})$ over the unit disk, the adjoint of a linear fractional composition operator equals the product of a composition operator and two…
Using recent characterizations of the compactness of composition operators on Hardy-Orlicz and Bergman-Orlicz spaces on the ball, we first show that a composition operator which is compact on every Hardy-Orlicz (or Bergman-Orlicz) space has…
Let $\mathbb{D}$ be the open unit disk in $\mathbb{C}$, let $H^2$ denote the Hardy space on $\mathbb{D}$ and let $\varphi : \mathbb{D} \rightarrow \mathbb{D}$ be a holomorphic self map of $\mathbb{D}$. The composition operator $C_{\varphi}$…
Let $\phi$ and $\psi$ be holomorphic self-maps of the unit polydisc $U^n$ in the $n$-dimensional complex space, and denote by $C_{\phi}$ and $C_{\psi}$ the induced composition operators. This paper gives some simple estimates of the…
We study the C$^*$ algebra generated by the composition operator $C_a$ acting on the Hardy space $H^2$ of the unit disk, given by $C_af=f\circ\varphi_a$, where $$ \varphi_a(z)=\frac{a-z}{1-\bar{a}z}, $$ for $|a|<1$. Also several operators…
We consider the nature of the wave function using the example of a harmonic oscillator. We show that the eigenfunctions $\psi_n{=}z^n$ of the quantum Hamiltonian in the complex Bargmann-Fock-Segal representation with $z\in\mathbb C$ are the…
An element [\Phi] of the Grassmannian of n-dimensional subspaces of the Hardy space H^2, extended over the field C(x_1,..., x_n), may be associated to any polynomial basis {\phi} for C(x). The Pl\"ucker coordinates…
In this paper, we study hyponormal weighed composition operators on the Hardy and weighted Bergman spaces. For functions $\psi \in A(\mathbb{D})$ which are not the zero function, we characterize all hyponormal compact weighted composition…
We compare the compactness of composition operators on $H^2$ and on Orlicz-Hardy spaces $H^\Psi$. We show in particular that exists an Orlicz function $\Psi$ such that $H^{3+\eps} \subseteq H^\Psi \subseteq H^3$ for every $\eps >0$, and a…
