Abstract: We develop a complete Fredholm and invertibility theory for Toeplitz+Hankel operators

T (a) + H (b)

on the Hardy space

H^{p}

,

1 < p < i n f t y

, with piecewise continuous functions

a, b

defined on the unit circle which are subject to the condition

a (t) a (t^{- 1}) = b (t) b (t^{- 1})

,

| t | = 1

. In particular, in the case of Fredholmness, formulas for the defect numbers are established. The results are applied to several important examples.

Review text

Let \(1<p<\infty\) and \(a,b\) be piecewise continuous functions on the unit circle \({\mathbb T}\) such that \(a(t)a(a^{-1})=b(t)b(t^{-1})\) for \(t\in{\mathbb T}\). A Fredholm criterion for the Toeplitz-plus-Hankel operator \(T(a)+H(b)\) on the Hardy space \(H^p({\mathbb T})\) is obtained. The dimensions of its kernel and cokernel are computed. As a consequence, an invertibility criterion for \(T(a)+H(b)\) is obtained. Several important examples are considered.
