In this paper, we revisit the Riemann--Liouville analytic semigroup. In particular, we completely characterize the membership to the Schatten class $S^r$ on $L^2(0,1)$, as well as the membership to the class of nuclear operators on $L^p(0,1)$, $p\geq 1$, and the membership to the ideal of absolutely $r$-summing operators for any $r\geq 1$.
The theory of Banach spaces of Dirichlet series has drawn an increasing attention in the recent 25 years. One of the main interest of this new theory is that of defining analogues of the classical spaces of analytic functions on the unit disc. In this sense, Bergman spaces were introduced several years ago contributing to broaden the picture of this theory. In the paper presenting these new family of spaces, some of its most essential questions were considered. Among them, some partial estimates of the norm of the pointwise evaluation functional were given. In this work, we introduce a version of the Riemann-Liouville semigroup acting on these spaces, and, with this new tool, we are able to estimate the norm of this functional.
Since their introduction in 1997, the Hardy spaces of Dirichlet series have been broadly and deeply studied. The increasing interest sparked by these Banach spaces of Dirichlet series motivated the introduction of new such spaces, as the Bergman spaces of Dirichlet series $\mathcal{A}^p_{\mu}$ here considered, where $\mu$ is a probability measure on $(0,\infty)$. Similarly, recent lines of research have focused their attention on the study of some classical operators acting on these spaces, as it is the case of the Volterra operator $T_g$. In this work, we introduce a new family of Bloch spaces of Dirichlet series, the $\text{Bloch}_{\mu}$-spaces, and study some of its most essential properties. Using these spaces we are able to provide a sufficient condition for the Volterra operator $T_g$ to act boundedly on the Bergman spaces $\mathcal{A}^p_{\mu}$. We also establish a necessary condition for a specific choice of the probability measures $\mu$. Sufficient and necessary conditions for compactness are also proven. The membership in Schatten classes is studied as well. Eventually, a radicality result is established for Bloch spaces of Dirichlet series.
We give a complete characterization of the sequences $\beta = (\beta_n)$ of positive numbers for which all composition operators on $H^2 (\beta)$ are bounded, where $H^2 (\beta)$ is the space of analytic functions $f$ on the unit disk ${\mathbb D}$ such that $\sum_{n = 0}^\infty |a_n|^2 \beta_n < + \infty$ if $f (z) = \sum_{n = 0}^\infty a_n z^n$. We prove that all composition operators are bounded on $H^2 (\beta)$ if and only if $\beta$ is essentially decreasing and slowly oscillating. We also prove that every automorphism of the unit disk induces a bounded composition operator on $H^2 (\beta)$ if and only if $\beta$ is slowly oscillating. We give applications of our results.
We first consider some questions raised by N. Zorboska in her thesis. In particular she asked for which sequences $\beta$ every symbol $\varphi \colon \mathbb{D} \to \mathbb{D}$ with $\varphi \in H^2 (\beta)$ induces a bounded composition operator $C_\phi$ on the weighted Hardy space $H^2 (\beta)$. We give partial answers and investigate when $H^2 (\beta)$ is an algebra. We answer negatively another question in showing that there are a sequence $\beta$ and $\varphi \in H^2 (\beta)$ such that $\| \varphi \|_\infty < 1$ and the composition operator $C_\varphi$ is not bounded on $H^2 (\beta)$. In a second part, we show that for $p \neq 2$, no automorphism of $\mathbb{D}$, except those that fix $0$, induces a bounded composition operator on the Beurling-Sobolev space $\ell^p_A$, and even on any weighted version of this space.
We characterize the (essentially) decreasing sequences of positive numbers $β$ = ($β$ n) for which all composition operators on H 2 ($β$) are bounded, where H 2 ($β$) is the space of analytic functions f in the unit disk such that $\infty$ n=0 |c n | 2 $β$ n < $\infty$ if f (z) = $\infty$ n=0 c n z n. We also give conditions for the boundedness when $β$ is not assumed essentially decreasing.
We characterize the symbols $Φ$ for which there exists a weight w such that the weighted composition operator M w C $Φ$ is compact on the weighted Bergman space B 2 $α$. We also characterize the symbols for which there exists a weight w such that M w C $Φ$ is bounded but not compact. We also investigate when there exists w such that M w C $Φ$ is Hilbert-Schmidt on B 2 $α$.
We compare the rate of decay of singular numbers of a given composition operator acting on various Hilbert spaces of analytic functions on the unit disk $\D$. We show that for the Hardy and Bergman spaces, our results are sharp. We also give lower and upper estimates of the singular numbers of the composition operator with symbol the ``cusp map'' and the lens maps, acting on weighted Dirichlet spaces.
We study when multiplication by a weight can turn a non-compact composition operator on H 2 into a compact operator, and when it can be in Schatten classes. The q-summing case in H p is considered. We also study when this multiplication can turn a compact composition operator into a non-compact one. MSC 2010 primary: 47B33 ; secondary: 46B28
We consider the Carleson embeddings of the classical Hardy spaces (on the disk) into a L p ($μ$) space, where $μ$ is a Carleson measure on the unit disk. This includes the case of composition operators. We characterize such operators which are r-summing on H p , where p \textgreater{} 1 and r $\ge$ 1. This completely extends the former results on the subject and solves a problem open since the early seventies. Mathematics Subject Classification.

In this paper we prove that $M^p_Λ$ is almost isometric to $\ell^p$ in the canonical way when $Λ$ is lacunary with a large ratio. On the other hand, our approach can be used to study also the Carleson measures for Müntz spaces $M^p_Λ$ when $Λ$ is lacunary. We give some necessary and some sufficient conditions to ensure that a Carleson embedding is bounded or compact. In the hilbertian case, the membership to Schatten classes is also studied. When $Λ$ behaves like a geometric sequence the results are sharp, and we get some characterizations.
We study the properties of the Volterra and Cesàro operators viewed on the $L^1$-Müntz space $M_Λ^1$ with range in the space of continuous functions. These operators are neither compact nor weakly compact. We estimate how far from being (weakly) compact they are by computing their (generalized) essential norm. It turns out that this latter does not depend on $Λ$ and is equal to $1/2$.
The Hardy spaces of Dirichlet series denoted by ${\cal H}^p$ ($p\ge1$) have been studied in [12] when p = 2 and in [3] for the general case. In this paper we study some Lp-generalizations of spaces of Dirichlet series, particularly two families of Bergman spaces denoted ${\cal A}^p$ and ${\cal B}^p$. We recover classical properties of spaces of analytic functions: boundedness of point evaluation, embeddings between these spaces and "Littlewood-Paley" formulas when p = 2. We also show that the ${\cal B}^p$ spaces have properties similar to the classical Bergman spaces of the unit disk while the ${\cal A}^p$ spaces have a different behavior.
We study the decay of approximation numbers of compact composition operators on the Dirichlet space. We give upper and lower bounds for these numbers. In particular, we improve on a result of O. El-Fallah, K. Kellay, M. Shabankhah and A. Youssfi, on the set of contact points with the unit circle of a compact symbolic composition operator acting on the Dirichlet space D. We extend their results in two directions: first, the contact only takes place at the point 1. Moreover, the approximation numbers of the operator can be arbitrarily sub-exponentially small.
In this paper, we prove that for every compact set of the unit disk of logarithmic capacity 0, there exists a Schur function both in the disk algebra and in the Dirichlet space such that the associated composition operator is in all Schatten classes (of the Dirichlet space), and for which the set of points whose image touches the unit circle is equal to this compact set. We show that for every bounded composition operator on the Dirichlet space and for every point of the unit circle, the logarithmic capacity of the set of point having this point as image is 0. We show that every compact composition operator on the Dirichlet space is compact on the gaussian Hardy-Orlicz space; in particular, it is in every Schatten class on the usual Hilbertian Hardy space. On the other hand, there exists a Schur function such that the associated composition operator is compact on the gaussian Hardy-Orlicz space, but which is not even bounded on the Dirichlet space. We prove that the Schatten classes on the Dirichlet space can be separated by composition operators. Also, there exists a Schur function such that the associated composition operator is compact on the Dirichlet space, but in no Schatten class.
We give examples of results on composition operators connected with lens maps. The first two concern the approximation numbers of those operators acting on the usual Hardy space $H^2$. The last ones are connected with Hardy-Orlicz and Bergman-Orlicz spaces $H^ψ$ and $B^ψ$, and provide a negative answer to the question of knowing if all composition operators which are weakly compact on a non-reflexive space are norm-compact.
We construct an analytic self-map $ϕ$ of the unit disk and an Orlicz function $Ψ$ for which the composition operator of symbol $ϕ$ is compact on the Hardy-Orlicz space $H^Ψ$, but not compact on the Bergman-Orlicz space ${\mathfrak B}^Ψ$. For that, we first prove a Carleson embedding theorem, and then characterize the compactness of composition operators on Bergman-Orlicz spaces, in terms of Carleson function (of order 2). We show that this Carleson function is equivalent to the Nevanlinna counting function of order 2.
We study the canonical injection from the Hardy-Orlicz space $H^Ψ$ into the Bergman-Orlicz space ${\mathfrak B}^Ψ$.
