Abstract: My first paper on composition operators. It characterizes
the Hilbert-Schmidt composition operators and shows that non-finiteness
of the angular derivative is necessary for compactness. A sufficient
condition for compactness involving the angular derivative---much
strengthened in later papers---is proved, and these results are
used to give examples of compact and noncompact composition operators.
In particular, if the inducing map takes the unit disc into a
polygon inscribed in the unit circle, then the induced composition
operator is in every Schatten class. |
