Intertwining Multiplication Operators on Function Spaces
Suppose that X is a Banach space of analytic functions on a plane domain Ω. We characterize the operators T that intertwine with the multiplication operators acting on X.

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.
We investigate isometric composition operators on the weighted Dirichlet space with standard weights , . The main technique used comes from Martín and Vukotić who completely characterized the isometric composition operators on the classical Dirichlet space . We solve some of these but not in general. We also investigate the situation when is equipped with another equivalent norm.
