a b s t r a c tWe characterize the analytic self-maps / of the unit disk D in C that induce continuous composition operators C / from the log-Bloch space B log ðDÞ to l-Bloch spaces B l ðDÞ in terms of the sequence of quotients of the l-Bloch semi-norm of the nth power of / and the log-Bloch semi-norm of the nth power F n of the identity function on D, where l : D ! ð0; 1Þ is continuous and bounded. We also obtain an expression that is equivalent to the essential norm of C / between these spaces, thus characterizing / such that C / is compact. After finding a pairwise norm equivalent family of log-Bloch type spaces that are defined on the unit ball B n of C n and include the log-Bloch space, we obtain an extension of our boundedness/compactness/essential norm results for C / acting on B log to the case when C / acts on these more general log-Bloch-type spaces.Published by Elsevier Inc.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
