The essential norm of Toeplitz operators between Bergman spaces of the unit ball in \(\mathbb C^n\) (Q2258310)

For \(0<p<\infty\), let \(A^p = A^p(B)\) denote the standard holomorphic Bergman space on the unit ball \(B\) of \(\mathbb{C}^n\), \(n\geq 1\). Given a finite positive Borel measure \(\mu\) on \(B\), the Toeplitz operator is defined as \[ T_\mu f(z) = \int_B K(z, w) f(w)\, d\mu(w), \quad z\in B, \] where \(K(z, w)\) is the Bergman kernel on \(B\). For \(1< q < \infty\) and \(p\leq q\), the author proves that either the essential norm \(\|T_\mu\|_{e, A^p \to A^q}\) is infinite, or for a fixed \(r>0\), there exist constants \(C_1(r), C_2(r)>0\) such that \[ \begin{multlined} C_1(r) \limsup_{|a|\to 1-} \frac{\mu(E(a, r))}{(1-|a|^2)^{(n+1)\left(\frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{q}+1\right)}} \leq \|T_\mu\|_{e, A^p \to A^q}\\ \leq C_2(r) \limsup_{|a|\to 1-} \frac{\mu(E(a, r))}{(1-|a|^2)^{(n+1)\left(\frac{1}{p}-\frac{1}{q}+1\right)}}, \end{multlined} \] where \(E(a,r) = \{z\in B: \beta(a,z)\leq r\}\) is the closed \(r\)-ball with respect to the Bergman metric \(\beta\).
