We denote by the unit circle and by the unit disc of ℂ. Let s be a non-negative real and ω a weight such that $\omega \left(n\right)={(1+n)}^s$ (n ≥ 0) and the sequence ${(\omega (-n)/{(1+n)}^s)}_{n\ge 0}$ is non-decreasing. We define the Banach algebra $A_{\omega }\left(\right)={f\in \left(\right):\left|\right|f\left|\right|}_{\omega }={\sum }_{n=-\infty }^{+\infty }\left|f̂\left(n\right)\right|\omega \left(n\right)<+\infty$. If I is a closed ideal of $A_{\omega }\left(\right)$, we set $h⁰\left(I\right)=z\in :f\left(z\right)=0\left(f\in I\right)$. We describe all closed ideals I of $A_{\omega }\left(\right)$ such that h⁰(I) is at most countable. A similar result is obtained for closed ideals of the algebra $A{⁺}_s\left(\right)=f\in A_{\omega }\left(\right):f̂\left(n\right)=0(n<0)$ without inner factor. Then we use this description to establish a link between operators with countable spectrum and interpolating sets...

The structure of closed ideals of a regular algebra containing the classical A∞ is considered. Several division and approximation results are proved and a characterization of those ideals whose intersection with A∞ is not {0} is obtained. A complete description of the ideals with countable hull is given, with applications to synthesis of hyperfunctions.

Completeness of a dilation system ${\left(\varphi \left(nx\right)\right)}_{n\ge 1}$ on the standard Lebesgue space $L^2(0,1)$ is considered for 2-periodic functions $\varphi$. We show that the problem is equivalent to an open question on cyclic vectors of the Hardy space $H^2\left({𝔻}_2^{\infty }\right)$ on the Hilbert multidisc ${𝔻}_2^{\infty }$. Several simple sufficient conditions are exhibited, which include however practically all previously known results (Wintner; Kozlov; Neuwirth, Ginsberg, and Newman; Hedenmalm, Lindquist, and Seip). For instance, each of the following conditions implies cyclicity...

The lattice of invariant subspaces of several Banach spaces of analytic functions on the unit disk, for example the Bergman spaces and the Dirichlet spaces, have been studied recently. A natural question is to what extent these investigations carry over to analogously defined spaces on an annulus. We consider this question in the context of general Banach spaces of analytic functions on finitely connected domains Ω­. The main result reads as follows: Assume that B is a Banach space of analytic functions...

Operators on function spaces of form Cɸf = f ∘ ɸ, where ɸ is a fixed map are called composition operators with symbol ɸ. We study such operators acting on the Hilbert Hardy space over the right half-plane and characterize the situations when they are invertible, Fredholm, unitary, and Hermitian. We determine the normal composition operators with inner, respectively with Möbius symbol. In select cases, we calculate their spectra, essential spectra, and numerical ranges.

Linear isometries of N p(D) onto N p(D) are described, where N p(D), p > 1, is the set of all holomorphic functions f on the upper half plane D = {z ∈ ℂ: Im z > 0} such that supy>0 ∫ℝ lnp (1 + |(x + iy)|) dx < +∞. Our result is an improvement of the results by D.A. Efimov.

Under mild conditions on the weight function K we characterize lacunary series in the so-called ${}_K$ spaces.

We show that if $\alpha >1$, then the logarithmically weighted Bergman space $A_{{log}^{\alpha }}^2$ is mapped by the Libera operator $ℒ$ into the space $A_{{log}^{\alpha -1}}^2$, while if $\alpha >2$ and $0<\epsilon \le \alpha -2$, then the Hilbert matrix operator $H$ maps $A_{{log}^{\alpha }}^2$ into $A_{{log}^{\alpha -2-\epsilon }}^2$.We show that the Libera operator $ℒ$ maps the logarithmically weighted Bloch space ${ℬ}_{{log}^{\alpha }}$, $\alpha \in ℝ$, into itself, while $H$ maps ${ℬ}_{{log}^{\alpha }}$ into ${ℬ}_{{log}^{\alpha +1}}$.In Pavlović’s paper (2016) it is shown that $ℒ$ maps the logarithmically weighted Hardy-Bloch space ${ℬ}_{{log}^{\alpha }}^1$, $\alpha >0$, into ${ℬ}_{{log}^{\alpha -1}}^1$. We show that this result is sharp. We also show that $H$ maps ${ℬ}_{{log}^{\alpha }}^1$, $\alpha \ge 0$, into ${ℬ}_{{log}^{\alpha -1}}^1$ and...

We give new characterizations of the analytic Besov spaces Bp on the unit ball B of Cn in terms of oscillations and integral means over some Euclidian balls contained in B.
