A note on composition operators between weighted spaces of smooth functions

Abstract: For certain weighted locally convex spaces

X

and

Y

of one real variable smooth functions, we characterize the smooth functions

v a r p h i : m a t h b b R o m a t h b b R

for which the composition operator

C_{v} a r p h i : X o Y,, f m a p s t o f c i r c v a r p h i

is well-defined and continuous. This problem has been recently considered for

X = Y

being the space

m a t h s c r S

of rapidly decreasing smooth functions [1] and the space

m a t h s c r O_{M}

of slowly increasing smooth functions [2]. In particular, we recover both these results as well as obtain a characterization for

X = Y

being the space

m a t h s c r O_{C}

of very slowly increasing smooth functions.
