Extended Cesàro operators on mixed norm spaces (Q4804067)

Given a function \(g\) holomorphic on the unit ball \(B\) of \(\mathbb C^n\), let \({\mathcal R} g=\sum_{j=1}^n z_j{{\partial g}\over {\partial z_j}}\) be the radial derivative of \(g\). The extended Cesàro operator \(T_g\) with symbol \(g\) is then defined by \[ T_gf(z)=\int_0^1 f(tz) {\mathcal R}g(tz)\, dt,\qquad z\in B, \] for functions \(f\) holomorphic on \(B\). In this paper, the author considers these operators acting on certain weighted mixed norm spaces \(H_{p,q}(\varphi)\). Roughly speaking, the space \(H_{p,q}(\varphi)\) is the space of all holomorphic functions on \(B\) whose \(q\)-integral means belong to \(L^p\) with respect to certain weights involving \(\varphi\). These mixed norm spaces contain the well-known weighted Bergman spaces as special cases. The author shows that \(T_g\) is bounded (resp. compact) on \(H_{p,q}(\varphi)\) for some (resp. all) \(p,q\in(0,\infty]\) if and only if \(g\) is a (resp. little) Bloch function.
