Abstract: Let varphi be a self-map of the unit disk and let Cvarphi denote the composition operator acting on the standard Dirichlet space mathcalD. A necessary condition for compactness of a difference of two bounded composition operators acting on mathcalD, is given. As an application, a characterization of disk automorphisms varphi and psi for which the commutator [Cp∗si,Cvarphi] is compact, is given.


Let \(C_\varphi\) be the composition operator induced by the self-map of the unit disk. In the present paper, the authors gave a necessary condition for compactness of the operator \(C_\varphi-C_\psi\) acting on the standard Dirichlet space. As an application, they determine when the commutator \(C_{\psi}^* C_\varphi-C_\varphi C_{\psi}^*\) is compact, where \(\varphi,\psi\) are automorphisms and not equal to the identity.
