Abstract

The analytic self-map of the unit disk D, φ is said to induce a composition operator Cφ from the Banach space X to the Banach space Y if Cφ(f)=fφY for all fX. For zD and α>0, the families of weighted Cauchy transforms Fα are defined by f(z)=TKxα(z)dμ(x), where μ(x) is complex Borel measure, x belongs to the unit circle T, and the kernel Kx(z)=(1x¯z)1. In this paper, we will explore the relationship between the compactness of the composition operator Cφ acting on Fα and the complex Borel measures μ(x).
