On weighted compositions preserving the Carathéodory class (Q1795161)

The paper characterizes in various ways the weighted composition transformations which preserve the class \(\mathcal P\) of normalized analytic functions in the disk \(D\) with positive real part. These transformations \(T_{F,\phi}\) are defined by a composition followed by a multiplication: \(T_{F,\phi}( f ) = F\cdot( f \circ\phi)\), where \(F,\phi\) are analytic in \(D\), \(F(0)=1\), and \(\phi(D) \subset D\). The authors ask whether such a transformation acts on \(\mathcal P\) or preserves \(\mathcal P\) in the sense that \(T_{F,\phi}( f ) \in\mathcal P\) for every \(f\) in \(\mathcal P\).
