Abstract

Let [ ] be the open unit disk in the complex plane [Copf ]. The Bergman space L2a([ ]) is the Hilbert space of analytic functions f in [ ] such that

are two functions in L2a([ ]), then the inner product of f and g is given by

We study multiplication operators on L2a([ ]) induced by analytic functions. Thus for φ ∈ H ∞([ ]), the space of bounded analytic functions in [ ], we define

It is easy to check that Mφ is a bounded linear operator on L2a([ ]) with
