Abstract

We characterize the analytic self-maps ϕ\phi of the unit disk D{\Bbb D} in C{\Bbb C} that induce continuous composition operators CϕC_\phi from the log-Bloch space Blog(D)\mathcal{B}^{\log}({\Bbb D}) to μ\mu-Bloch spaces Bμ(D){\mathcal B}^\mu({\Bbb D}) in terms of the sequence of quotients of the μ\mu-Bloch semi-norm of the nnth power of ϕ\phi and the log-Bloch semi-norm (norm) of the nnth power FnF_n of the identity function on D{\Bbb D}, where μ:D(0,)\mu:{\Bbb D}\rightarrow (0,\infty) is continuous and bounded. We also obtain an expression that is equivalent to the essential norm of CϕC_\phi between these spaces, thus characterizing ϕ\phi such that CϕC_\phi is compact. After finding a pairwise norm equivalent family of log-Bloch type spaces that are defined on the unit ball Bn{\Bbb B}_n of Cn{\Bbb C}^n and include the log-Bloch space, we obtain an extension of our boundedness/compactness/essential norm results for CϕC_\phi acting on Blog{\mathcal B}^{\log} to the case when CϕC_\phi acts on these more general log-Bloch-type spaces.
