[For the entire collection see Zbl 0699.00028.] Let \(\Omega\) be a domain in \(\mathbb{C}^ n\) and \(H(\Omega)\) be a topological vector space of holomorphic functions on \(\Omega\). If \(\varphi: \Omega\to\Omega\) is a holomorphic map such that (i) \(f\circ\varphi\in H(\Omega)\) for every \(f\in H(\Omega)\) and (ii) mapping \(f\mapsto f\circ\varphi\) is continuous, then the operator \(C_ \varphi\) defined by \(C_ \varphi f=f\circ\varphi\) is called the composition operator on \(H(\Omega)\) induced by \(\varphi\). This paper presents a survey of the recent results concerning characterization and compactness of composition operators on the Hardy space \(H^ p(B_ n)\), where \(B_ n\) is the unit ball of \(\mathbb{C}^ n\).
