Composition operators on Dirichlet spaces and Bloch space

In this paper we give a Carleson measure characterization for the compact composition operators between Dirichlet type spaces. We use this characterization to show that every compact composition operator on Dirichlet type spaces is compact on the Bloch space.     

Carleson embeddings and some classes of operators on weighted Bergman spaces

We prove Carleson-type embedding theorems for weighted Bergman spaces with Békollé weights. We use this to study properties of Toeplitz-type operators, integration operators and composition operators acting on such spaces. In particular, we investigate the membership of these operators to Schatten class ideals.     

Composition operators on Dirichlet-type spaces

The Dirichlet-type space ) is the Banach space of functions analytic in the unit disc with derivatives belonging to the Bergman space . Let be an analytic self-map of the disc and define for . The operator is bounded (respectively, compact) if and only if a related measure is Carleson (respectively, compact Carleson). If is bounded (or compact) on , then the same behavior holds on ) and on the weighted Dirichlet space . Compactness on implies that is compact on the Hardy spaces and the angular derivative exists nowhere on the unit circle. Conditions are given which, together with the angular derivative condition, imply compactness on the space . Inner functions which induce bounded composition operators on are discussed briefly.

     

Carleson measures, multipliers and integration operators for spaces of Dirichlet type

For 0<p<∞ and α>−1, we let denote the space of those functions f which are analytic in the unit disc and satisfy . In this paper we characterize the positive Borel measures μ in D such that , 0<p<q<∞. We also characterize the pointwise multipliers from to (0<p<q<∞) if p−2<α<p. In particular, we prove that if the only pointwise multiplier from to (0<p<q<∞) is the trivial one. This is not longer true for and we give a number of explicit examples of functions which are multipliers from to for this range of values.     

Composition operators on the polydisk induced by affine maps

We study the continuity of composition operators on the classical Hardy and weighted Bergman spaces of the polydisk. We show that this problem involves some delicate properties of the derivative of the symbol. In particular, we characterize continuity when the symbol is a linear self-map of the polydisk.     

Area operators from H~p spaces to L~q spaces

We characterize non-negative measures μ on the unit disk D for which the area operator A μ is bounded or compact from Hardy space H p to L q (D) spaces.     

Composition operators on Bloch-Orlicz type spaces

In this paper we use Young’s functions to define the Bloch-Orlicz spaces as a generalization of Bloch spaces. We study continuity, boundedness from below and compactness of composition operators on Bloch-Orlicz spaces.     

Composition operators that improve integrability on weighted Bergman spaces

Composition operators between weighted Bergman spaces with a smaller exponent in the target space are studied. An integrability condition on a generalized Nevanlinna counting function of the inducing map is shown to characterize both compactness and boundedness of such an operator. Composition operators mapping into the Hardy spaces are included by making particular choices for the weights.

     

Embedding theorems and integration operators on Bergman spaces with rapidly decreasing weights

We completely describe those positive Borel measures μ in the unit disc D such that the Bergman space Ap(w)⊂Lq(μ), 0<p,q<∞, where w belongs to a large class W of rapidly decreasing weights which includes the exponential weights , α>0, and some double exponential type weights.As an application of that result, we characterize the boundedness and the compactness of Tg:Ap(w)→Aq(w), 0<p,q<∞, w∈W, where Tg is the integration operator

     

Essential norms of weighted composition operators on Müntz spaces

In this paper, we discuss the problem of compactness for weighted composition operators, defined on a Müntz space . We compute the essential norm of such operators on the Müntz spaces. As a corollary, we obtain the exact values of essential norms of composition and multiplication operators.     

Level sets and composition operators on the Dirichlet space

We consider composition operators in the Dirichlet space of the unit disc in the plane. Various criteria on boundedness, compactness and Hilbert-Schmidt class membership are established. Some of these criteria are shown to be optimal.     

Disjoint hypercyclic linear fractional composition operators

We characterize disjoint hypercyclicity and disjoint supercyclicity of finitely many linear fractional composition operators acting on spaces of holomorphic functions on the unit disc, answering a question of Bernal-González. We also study mixing and disjoint mixing behavior of projective limits of endomorphisms of a projective spectrum. In particular, we show that a linear fractional composition operator is mixing on the projective limit of the Sv spaces strictly containing the Dirichlet space if and only if the operator is mixing on the Hardy space.     

On the Dirichlet semigroup for Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators in subsets of Hilbert spaces

We consider a family of self-adjoint Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators Lα in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H having the same gaussian invariant measure μ for all α∈[0,1]. We study the Dirichlet problem for the equation λφ−Lαφ=f in a closed set K, with f∈L²(K,μ). We first prove that the variational solution, trivially provided by the Lax-Milgram theorem, can be represented, as expected, by means of the transition semigroup stopped to K. Then we address two problems: 1) the regularity of the solution φ (which is by definition in a Sobolev space ) of the Dirichlet problem; 2) the meaning of the Dirichlet boundary condition. Concerning regularity, we are able to prove interior regularity results; concerning the boundary condition we consider both irregular and regular boundaries. In the first case we content to have a solution whose null extension outside K belongs to . In the second case we exploit the Malliavin's theory of surface integrals which is recalled in Appendix A of the paper, then we are able to give a meaning to the trace of φ at ∂K and to show that it vanishes, as it is natural.     

Area operator on Bergman spaces

We characterize the non-negative measuresμon the unit disk D for which the area operator Aμis bounded from Bergman space Aαp to Lq ((?)D).     

Interpolating sequences in harmonically weighted Dirichlet spaces

We describe the interpolating sequences and weak interpolating sequences for the multiplier algebras of harmonically weighted Dirichlet spaces when is a finitely atomic measure.

     

Composition operators on the polydisc

In this paper we study the boundedness of composition operators on the weighted Bergman spaces and the Hardy space over the polydisc ${\mathbb{D}}^n$. Studying the volume of sublevel sets we show for which n the necessary conditions obtained by Bayart are sufficient. For arbitrary polydisc we prove the rank sufficiency theorem which, in particular, provides us with a simple criterion describing boundedness of composition operators on the spaces over the bidisc. Such a consistent characterization is obtained for the classical Bergman space over the tridisc.
