AbstractWe consider kernels of unbounded Toeplitz operators in $$H^p({\mathbb {C}}^{+})$$ H p ( C + ) in terms of a factorization of their symbols. We study the existence of a minimal Toeplitz kernel containing a given function in $$H^p({\mathbb {C}}^{+})$$ H p ( C + ) , we describe the kernels of Toeplitz operators whose symbol possesses a certain factorization involving two different Hardy spaces and we establish relations between the kernels of two operators whose symbols differ by a factor which corresponds, in the unit circle, to a non-integer power of z. We apply the results to describe the kernels of Toeplitz operators with non-vanishing piecewise continuous symbols.

SynopsisWe obtain an explicit formula for the essential norm of a Hankel operator with its symbol in the space PC, which is the closure in L∞ of the space of piecewise continuous functions on the unit circle . It follows from this formula that functions in PC can be approximated as closely by functions in C, the continuous functions on the circle, as by functions in the much larger space H∞ + C. This is an example of the way in which properties of the Hardy spaces can be derived from properties of Hankel operators.

Let T be the unit circle on the complex plane, H2(T) be the usual Hardy space on T, Tø be the Toeplitz operator with symbol Cowen showed that if f1 and f2 are functions in H such that is in Lø, then Tf is hyponormal if and only if for some constant c and some function g in H∞ with Using it, T. Nakazi and K. Takahashi showed that the symbol of hyponormal Toeplitz operator Tø satisfies and and they described the ø solving the functional equation above. Both of their conditions are hard to check, T. Nakazi and K. Takahashi remarked that even “the question about polynomials is still open” [2]. Kehe Zhu gave a computing process by way of Schur’s functions so that we can determine any given polynomial ø such that Tø is hyponormal [3]. Since no closed-form for the general Schur’s function is known, it is still valuable to find an explicit expression for the condition of a polynomial á such that Tø is hyponormal and depends only on the coefficients of ø, here we have one, it is elementary and relatively easy to check. We begin with the most general case and the following Lemma is essential.

We study the Toeplitz operators $T_f: H_2 \to H_2$, for $f \in L_\infty$, on a class of spaces $H_2$ which in- cludes, among many other examples, the Hardy and Bergman spaces as well as the Fock space. We investigate the space $X$ of those elements $f \in L_\infty$ with $\lim_j \|T_f-T_{f_j}\|=0$ where $(f_j)$ is a sequence of vector-valued trigonometric polynomials whose coefficients are radial functions. For these $T_f$ we obtain explicit descriptions of their essential spectra. Moreover, we show that $f \in X$, whenever $T_f$ is compact, and characterize these functions in a simple and straightforward way. Finally, we determine those $f \in L_\infty$ where $T_f$ is a Hilbert-Schmidt operator.

Abstract This paper contains a further analysis of the Toeplitz-like operators $$T_\omega $$ T ω on $$H^p$$ H p with rational symbol $$\omega $$ ω having poles on the unit circle that were previously studied in Groenewald (Oper Theory Adv Appl 271:239–268, 2018; Oper Theory Adv Appl 272:133–154, 2019). Here the adjoint operator $$T_\omega ^*$$ T ω ∗ is described. In the case where $$p=2$$ p = 2 and $$\omega $$ ω has poles only on the unit circle $${\mathbb {T}}$$ T , a description is given for when $$T_\omega ^*$$ T ω ∗ is symmetric and when $$T_\omega ^*$$ T ω ∗ admits a selfadjoint extension. If in addition $$\omega $$ ω is proper, it is shown that $$T_\omega ^*$$ T ω ∗ coincides with the unbounded Toeplitz operator defined by Sarason (Integr Equ Oper Theory 61:281–298, 2008) and studied further by Rosenfeld (Classes of densely defined multiplication and Toeplitz operators with applications to extensions of RKHS’s, 2013; J Math Anal Appl 440:911–921, 2016).
