Topological structure of the space of composition operators between different Fock spaces (Q2054446)

Composition operators \(C_\varphi\) have been intensively investigated on various Banach spaces of holomorphic functions during the past several decades in different directions. In particular, one of the main problems is to characterize (path) components and isolated points in the space of composition operators endowed with the operator norm topology. It is worth mentioning that such problems have not been solved completely on many spaces. Let \(\mathcal{F}^\infty(\mathbb{C}^n)\) and \(\mathcal{F}^p(\mathbb{C}^n)\) with \(p\in(0,\infty)\) denote the Fock spaces in several variables. In the paper under review, the authors solve the topological problem, including path components and isolated points, for the space of all composition operators between Fock spaces \(\mathcal{F}^p(\mathbb{C}^n)\) and \(\mathcal{F}^q(\mathbb{C}^n)\) with \(0<p,q\leq\infty\) and they list an example simultaneously. They extend the corresponding results to all general Fock spaces in several variables. It should be noted that the previous methods are no longer suitable and the authors develop a new approach to overcome such difficulities.
