Adjoints of Composition Operators on Hardy Spaces of the Half-Plane
Abstract
Description
Building on techniques used in the case of the disc, we use a variety of methods to develop formulae for the adjoints of composition operators on Hardy spaces of the upper half-plane. In doing so, we prove a slight extension of a known necessary condition for the boundedness of such operators, and use it to provide a complete classification of the bounded composition operators with rational symbol. We then consider some specific examples, comparing our formulae with each other, and with other easily deduced formulae for simple cases.
