Abstract: For Toeplitz operators Tf(t) acting on the weighted Fock space Ht2, we consider the semi-commutator Tf(t)Tg(t)Tfg(t), where t>0 is a certain weight parameter that may be interpreted as Planck's constant hbar in Rieffel's deformation quantization. In particular, we are interested in the semi-classical limit ag{}limlimits_{t o 0}|T_f^{(t)}T_g^{(t)}-T_{fg}^{(t)}|_t. It is well-known that |Tf(t)Tg(t)Tfg(t)|t tends to 0 under certain smoothness assumptions imposed on f and g. This result was extended to f,ginmathrmBUC(mathbbCn) in a recent paper by Bauer and Coburn. We now further generalize this result to (not necessarily bounded) uniformly continuous functions and symbols in the algebra mathrmVMOcapLinfty of bounded functions having vanishing mean oscillation on mathbbCn. Our approach is based on the algebraic identity , where Hg(t) denotes the Hankel operator corresponding to the symbol g, and norm estimates in terms of the (weighted) heat transform. As a consequence, only f (or likewise only g) has to be contained in one of the above classes for () to vanish. For g we only have to impose limsupto0|Hg(t)|t<infty, e.g. ginLinfty(mathbbCn). We prove that the set of all symbols finLinfty(mathbbCn) with the property that limtightarrow0|Tf(t)Tg(t)Tfg(t)|t=limto0|Tg(t)Tf(t)Tgf(t)|t=0 for all ginLinfty(mathbbCn) coincides with mathrmVMOcapLinfty. Additionally, we show that limto0|Tf(t)|t=|f|infty holds for all finLinfty(mathbbCn). Finally, we present new examples, including bounded smooth functions, where () does not vanish.
