    Let \(\mathbb{B}_n\) be the unit ball in \(\mathbb{C}^n\). For a weight parameter \(\lambda\in (-1,\infty)\), \(dv_\lambda(z) = c_\lambda(1-|z|^2)^\lambda dv(z)\) is a probability measure with normalizing constant \(c_\lambda=\frac{\Gamma(n + \lambda + 1)} {\Gamma(\lambda + 1)} \) and where \(dv\) denotes the usual volume form on \(\mathbb{B}_n\). Let \(L^2(\mathbb{B}_n, dv_\lambda)\) denote the standard weighted Lebesgue space and \(A^2_\lambda(\mathbb{B}_n)\) the classical weighted Bergman space, being the closed subspace of \(L^2(\mathbb{B}_n, dv_\lambda)\) that consists of all complex analytic \(dv_\lambda\)-square integrable functions. The Toeplitz operator \(T_a\) on \( A^2_\lambda (\mathbb{B}_n)\) is defined as the compression of a multiplication operator on \(L^2(\mathbb{B}_n, dv_\lambda)\) onto the Bergman space, i.e., with a given symbol \(a \in L^\infty (\mathbb{B}_n)\) the operator \(T_a\) has the form \(T_a f = B_\lambda(af)\), where \(B_\lambda\) is the Bergman (orthogonal) projection of \(L^2(\mathbb{B}_n, dv_\lambda)\) onto \(A^2_\lambda(\mathbb{B}_n)\). An operator S is radial if it commutes with all unitary changes of variables. The Toeplitz operator \(T_a\) is radial if its symbol is a radial function, i.e., \( a(z) = a(|z|)\). In this paper, the authors study radial operators, and in particular radial Toeplitz operators, acting on the weighted Bergman space \(A^2_\lambda(\mathbb{B}_n)\). They prove that these operators turn out to be diagonal with respect to the standard monomial basis, and the elements of their eigenvalue sequences depend only on the length of multi-indexes enumerating basis elements. The authors explicitly characterize the eigenvalue sequences of radial Toeplitz operators by giving a solution for the weighted extension of the classical Hausdorff moment problem, and show that the norm closure of the set of all radial Toeplitz operators with bounded measurable radial symbols coincides with the \(C^*\) -algebra generated by these Toeplitz operators and is isomorphic and isometric to the \(C^*\)-algebra of sequences that slowly oscillate in the sense of \textit{R. Schmidt} [Math. Z. 22, 89--152 (1925; JFM 51.0182.04)].
