Weighted composition operators from weighted Hardy spaces to weighted-type spaces (Q2860784)

This paper presents necessary and sufficient conditions for a weighted composition operator to be bounded or compact when acting from a weighted Hardy space \(H^2(\beta)\) into a weighted Banach space \(H^\infty_v\) or \(H^0_v\) of holomorphic functions on the unit disc for a normal weight \(v\). The characterizations are in fact valid for weights \(v\) which are radial and vanish at the boundary. Examples of Hilbert spaces \(H^2(\beta)\) for different weights \(\beta=(\beta_n)\) are the Hardy space \(H^2\), the Bergman space \(A^2\) and the Dirichlet space \(\mathcal{D}^2\). Weighted Banach spaces of type \(H^\infty_v\) or \(H^0_v\) have been studied by Shields and Williams, Bierstedt, Summers, Lusky and many others.
