Compact differences of composition operators on Bergman spaces induced by doubling weights

Abstract: Bounded and compact differences of two composition operators acting from the weighted Bergman space

A_{o}^{p} m e g a

to the Lebesgue space

L_{u}^{q}

, where

0 < q < p < i n f t y

and

o m e g a

belongs to the class

m a t h c a l D

of radial weights satisfying a two-sided doubling condition, are characterized. On the way to the proofs a new description of

q

-Carleson measures for

A_{o}^{p} m e g a

, with

p > q

and

o m e g a i n m a t h c a l D

, involving pseudohyperbolic discs is established. This last-mentioned result generalizes the well-known characterization of

q

-Carleson measures for the classical weighted Bergman space

A_{a}^{p} l p h a

with

- 1 < a l p h a < i n f t y

to the setting of doubling weights. The case

o m e g a i n w i d e h a t m a t h c a l D

is also briefly discussed and an open problem concerning this case is posed.
