On the commutativity of a certain class of Toeplitz operators

Abstract: In this paper we prove that if the polar decomposition of a symbol

f

is truncated above, i.e.,

f (r e^{i h e t a}) = s u m_{k = - i n f t y}^{N} e^{i k h e t a} f_{k} (r)

where the

f_{k}

's are radial functions, and if the associated Toeplitz operator

T_{f}

commutes with

, then

where

Q

is a polynomial of degree at most

1

. This gives a partial answer to an open problem by S. Axler, Z. Cuckovic and N. V. Rao [2, p. 1953].
