Complex FIOs and composition of Toeplitz operators (Q6110681)

The article concerns the Toeplitz operators on Bargmann space, and the main result obtained says that the composition of two Toeplitz operators, with symbols that are exponential of complex quadratic forms, is a again a Toeplitz operator. More precisely, for a strictly plurisubharmonic quadratic form \(\Phi_0\) on \(\mathbb{C}^n\), let \(H_{\Phi_0}\) be the Bargmann space -- the space of holomorphic functions in \(L^2 (\mathbb{C}^n, e^{-2 \Phi_0} dx)\). For complex valued quadratic forms \(q\) on \(\mathbb{C}^n\), let \(\text{Top}(e^q)\) denote the Toeplitz operator with symbol \(e^q\). The authors show that \(\text{Top}(e^{q_1}) \circ \text{Top}(e^{q_2})\) is again a Toeplitz operator on \(H_{\Phi_0}\), if \(\text{Re} (q_j) (x)< \Phi_{\text{herm} }(x) := \frac{1}{2}(\Phi_0(x) + \Phi_0(ix)), j=1,2\). In fact the result is proved in two steps. First the authors show that the composition of two Toeplitz operators as above is a Weyl quantisation, with symbol \(e^{iF}\) for an appropriate holomorphic quadratic form \(F\) on \(\mathbb{C}^{2n}\). Next they investigate when is a Weyl quantisation with symbol \( e^{iF}\) a Toeplitz operator. The technical assumptions in these two theorems involve the non-degeneracy condition on certain holomorphic quadratic form associated with \(F\), and also that the spectrum of the fundamental matrix of \(F\) does not contain \(\pm 1 \).
