Introduction Let D be the open unit disk in the complex plane, ∂D be its boundary, Dw, r be disk centered at w of radius r, and let HD be the class of all holomorphic functions on D. Let ηa z a−z , 1 − az a ∈ D, 1.1 be the involutive Möbius transformation which interchanges points 0 and a. If X is a Banach space, then by BX we will denote the closed unit ball in X. The α-Bloch space, Bα D Bα , α > 0, consists of all f ∈ HD such that α sup 1 − |z|2 f z < ∞. z∈D 1.2 2 Abstract and Applied Analysis The little α-Bloch space Bα0 D Bα0 consists of all functions f holomorphic on D such that α lim|z| → 1 1 − |z|2 |f z| 0. The norm on Bα is defined by α f α f0 sup 1 − |z|2 f z. B z∈D 1.3 With this norm, Bα is a Banach space, and the little α-Bloch space Bα0 is a closed subspace of the α-Bloch space. Note that B1 B is the usual Bloch space. Given a nonnegative Lebesgue measurable function K on 0, 1 the space QK consists of those f ∈ HD for which 2 bQ f sup K a∈D D 2 f z K 1 − ηa z2 dmz < ∞, 1.4 where dmz 1/πdx dy 1/πr dr dθ is the normalized area measure on D 1. It is known that bQK is a seminorm on QK which is Möbius invariant, that is, bQK f ◦ η bQK f , η ∈ AutD, 1.5 where AutD is the group of all automorphisms of the unit disk D. It is a Banach space with the norm defined by f f0 bQ f . K QK 1.6 The space QK,0 consists of all f ∈ HD such that lim |a| → 1 D 2 f z K 1 − ηa z2 dmz 0. 1.7 It is known that QK,0 is a closed subspace of QK . For classical Q spaces, see 2. It is clear that each QK contains all constant functions. If QK consists of just constant functions, we say that it is trivial. QK is nontrivial if and only if 1 sup t∈0, 1 K1 − r 0 1 − t2 1 − tr 2 3 r dr < ∞. 1.8 Throughout this paper, we assume that condition 1.8 is satisfied, so that the space QK is nontrivial. An important tool in the study of QK spaces is the auxiliary function λK defined by Kst , 0<t≤1 Kt λK s sup 0 < s < ∞, 1.9 where the domain of K is extended to 0, ∞ by setting Kt K1 when t > 1. The next two conditions play important role in the study of QK spaces. Abstract and Applied Analysis 3 a There is a constant C > 0 such that for all t > 0 K2t ≤ CKt. 1.10 b The auxiliary function λK satisfies the following condition: 1 0 λK s ds < ∞. s 1.11 Let Ω0, ∞ denote the class of all nondecreasing continuous functions on 0, ∞ satisfying conditions 1.8, 1.10, and 1.11. A positive Borel measure μ on D is called a K-Carleson measure 3 if K sup SI I 1 − |z| dμz < ∞, |I| 1.12 where the supermum is taken over all subarcs I ⊂ ∂D, |I| is the length of I, and SI is the Carleson box defined by SI z ∈I . z : 1 − |I| < |z| < 1, |z| 1.13 A positive Borel measure μ is called a vanishing K-Carleson measure if lim K |I| → 0 SI 1 − |z| dμz 0. |I| 1.14 We also need the following results of Wulan and Zhu in 3, in which QK spaces are characterized in terms of K-Carleson measures. Theorem 1.1. Let K ∈ Ω0, ∞. Then a positive Borel measure μ on D is a K-Carleson measure if and only if sup a∈D D 2 K 1 − ηa z dμz < ∞. 1.15 Also, μ is a vanishing K-Carleson measure if and only if lim |a| → 1 D 2 K 1 − ηa z dμz 0. 1.16 From Theorem 1.1 and the definition of the spaces QK and QK,0 , we see that when K ∈ Ω0, ∞, then f ∈ QK if and only if the measure dμf |f z|2 dmz is a K-Carleson measure, while f ∈ QK,0 if and only if this measure is a vanishing K-Carleson measure. 4 Abstract and Applied Analysis Let ϕ ∈ SD be the family of all holomorphic self-maps of D, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N0 . We define an integral-type operator as follows: n Iϕ,g fz z f n ϕζ gζdζ, z ∈ D. 1.17 0 Operator 1.17 extends several operators which has been introduced and studied recently see, e.g., 4–9. For related operators in n-dimensional case, see, for example, 10–19. For some classical operators see, for example, 20, 21 and the related references therein. For other product-type operators, see 22 and the references therein. Motivated by 23, 24 see also 25–29, we characterize when ϕ and g induce bounded and/or compact operators in 1.17 from α-Bloch to QK spaces. Throughout this paper, constants are denoted by C; they are positive and not necessarily the same at each occurrence. The notation A B means that there is a positive constant C such that B/C ≤ A ≤ CB. 2. Auxiliary Results Here, we quote several lemmas which will be used in the proofs of the main results in this paper. The following lemma is folklore see, e.g., 30. Lemma 2.1. For any f ∈ HD and z ∈ D, the following inequalities hold ⎧ f α , ⎪ if 0 < α < 1, ⎪ B ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ ⎪ e ⎪ ⎨f Bα ln , if α 1, fz ≤ C 1 − |z|2 ⎪ f α ⎪ ⎪ B ⎪ if α > 1, ⎪ , ⎪ ⎪ ⎩ 1 − |z|2 α−1 2.1 α supw∈Dz,1−|z|/2 1 − |w|2 f w n f z ≤ C αn−1 1 − |z|2 f α B ≤ C αn−1 , if n ∈ N. 2 1 − |z| 2.2 The next lemma is obtained in 31, 32. Lemma 2.2. Let α > 0. Then there are two functions f1 , f2 ∈ Bα such that f z f z ≥ 2 1 C 1 − |z|2 α , z ∈ D. 2.3 Abstract and Applied Analysis 5 Also, if α / 1, then there are two functions f3 , f4 ∈ Bα and C > 0, such that f3 z f4 z ≥ C 1 − |z| 2 α−1 , z ∈ D. 2.4 The next Schwartz-type lemma 33 is proved in a standard way, so we omit the proof. n Lemma 2.3. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N0 . Then Iϕ,g : Bα or Bα0 → QK is compact if and only if for any bounded sequence fm m∈N in Bα converging n to zero on compacts of D, we have limm → ∞ Iϕ,g fm Q 0. K n Lemma 2.4. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N0 . Then Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK or QK,0 is weakly compact if and only if it is compact. n ∗ n Proof. By a known theorem Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK or QK,0 is weakly compact if and only if Iϕ,g : ∗ ∗ or QK,0 → Bα0 ∗ is weakly compact. Since Bα0 ∗ ∼ QK A1 the Bergman space and A1 n ∗ ∗ ∗ has the Schur property, it follows that it is equivalent to Iϕ,g : QK or QK,0 → Bα0 ∗ , is n compact, which is equivalent to Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK or QK,0 , is compact, as claimed. n Lemma 2.5. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N0 . Then Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 n is compact if and only if Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is bounded. n Proof. By Lemma 2.4, Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is compact if and only if it is weakly compact, which, n ∗∗ by Gantmacher’s theorem 34, is equivalent to Iϕ,g Bα0 ∗∗ ⊆ QK,0 . Since Bα0 ∗∗ Bα n ∗∗ and by a standard duality argument Iϕ,g n n Iϕ,g on Bα , this can be written as Iϕ,g Bα ⊆ QK,0 , which by the closed graph theorem is equivalent to n Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is bounded. For a ∈ D, set Φϕ,g,K a D 2 21−α−n 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − ϕz dmz. 2.5 Lemma 2.6. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N0 . If Φϕ,g,K is finite at some point a ∈ D, then it is continuous on D. Proof. We follow the lines of Lemma 2.3 in 24. From the elementary inequality 2 1 − ηa z 4 1 − |a|1 − |a1 | ≤ , 2 ≤ 4 − − |a1 | 1 |a|1 1 − ηa1 z a, a1 , z ∈ D, 2.6 and since K is nondecreasing and satisfies 1.10, we easily get 2 2 K 1 − ηa1 z ≤ Clog2 4/1−|a|1−|a1 |1 K 1 − ηa z . 2.7 6 Abstract and Applied Analysis From 2.7 and since Φϕ,g,K a is finite, it follows that Φϕ,g,K is finite at each point a1 ∈ D. Let a ∈ D be fixed, and let al l∈N ⊂ D be a sequence converging to a. We have Φϕ,g,K a − Φϕ,g,K al ≤ gz2 K 1 − ηa z2 − K 1 − ηa z2 l dmz. 2 2αn−1 D 1 − ϕz 2.8 From 2.6, we have that for l such that 1 − |al | ≥ 1 − |a|/2, say l ≥ l0 , holds 2 1 − ηal z ≤ 8 1 − |a|2 2 1 − ηa z , 2.9 and consequently for l ≥ l0 , it holds 2 2 2 2 K 1 − ηa z − K 1 − ηal z ≤ 1 Clog2 8/1−|a| 1 K 1 − ηa z . 2.10 From this and since Φϕ,g,K is finite at a, by the Lebesgue dominated convergence theorem, we get that the integral in 2.8 converges to zero as l → ∞ which implies that Φϕ,g,K al → Φϕ,g,K a as l → ∞, from which the lemma follows. n 3. Boundedness and Compactness of Iϕ,g : Bα or Bα0 → QK or QK,0 n In this section, we characterize the boundedness and compactness of the operators Iϕ,g : Bα or Bα0 → QK or QK,0 . Let 2 21−α−n 2 dμϕ,g,n,α z gz 1 − ϕz dmz. 3.1 Theorem 3.1. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N, or n 0 and α > 1. Then the following statements are equivalent. n a Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is bounded. n b Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is bounded. 21−α−n c M : supa∈D D K1 − |ηa z|2 |gz|2 1 − |ϕz|2 dmz < ∞. d dμϕ,g,n,α z is a K-Carleson measure. n Moreover, if Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is bounded, then the next asymptotic relations hold n Iϕ,g Bα → QK n Iϕ,g Bα0 → QK M1/2 . 3.2 Abstract and Applied Analysis 7 Proof. By Theorem 1.1, it is clear that c and d are equivalent. n c ⇒ a. Let f ∈ BBα . First note that Iϕ,g f0 0 for each f ∈ HB and n ∈ N0 . From this and by Lemma 2.1, we have n 2 Iϕ,g f QK sup 2 n 2 Iϕ,g f z K 1 − ηa z dmz a∈D D a∈D D 2 2 2 sup f n ϕz gz K 1 − ηa z dmz 2 ≤ Cf Bα sup a∈D D 3.3 2 21−α−n 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − ϕz dmz, n from which the boundedness of Iϕ,g : Bα → QK follows, and moreover n Iϕ,g Bα → QK ≤ CM1/2 . 3.4 a ⇒ b. This implication is obvious. b ⇒ c. By Lemma 2.2, if n ∈ N, there are two functions f1 , f2 ∈ Bα such that 2.3 holds, and if n 0 and α > 1 such that 2.4 holds. Let h1 z f1 z − n−1 f k 0 1 k1 k! k z , h2 z f2 z − n−1 f k 0 2 k1 k! zk . 3.5 It is known see 30 that for each f ∈ HD and n ∈ N, we have 1 − |z|2 n−1 αn−1 α n k f z f 0 1 − |z|2 f z. 3.6 k1 k k From this, Lemma 2.2, and since h1 0 h2 0 0, k 0, 1, . . . , n − 1, we have that there is a δ > 0 such that −αn−1 n n C 1 − |z|2 ≤ h1 z h2 z, for |z| > δ. 3.7 Now note that for any f ∈ Bα , the functions fr z frz, r ∈ 0, 1 belong to Bα , and moreover, sup0<r<1 fr Bα ≤ fBα . 8 Abstract and Applied Analysis n Applying 3.7, using an elementary inequality, the boundedness of Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK , and the last inequality, we obtain |rϕz|>δ 2 21−α−n 2 2 r 2n K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − r ϕz dmz ≤C C D D 2 n 2 2 n 2 r 2n K 1 − ηa z gz h1 rϕz h2 rϕz dmz 2 2 n K 1 − ηa z Iϕ,g h1 r z dmz C 3.8 2 2 n K 1 − ηa z Iϕ,g h2 r z dmz D 2 n ≤ Iϕ,g α B0 → QK h1 2Bα h2 2Bα . Letting r → 1 in 3.8 and using the monotone convergence theorem, we get |ϕz|>δ 2 2 21−α−n 2 2 n K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − ϕz dmz ≤ CIϕ,g α B0 → QK . 3.9 n On the other hand, for f0 z zn /n! ∈ Bα0 , we get Iϕ,g f0 ∈ QK which implies 2 2 n f0 α I ϕ,g B α 2 21−α−n 2 2 B0 → QK gz 1 − ϕz sup K 1 − ηa z dmz ≤ . 2αn−1 α∈D |ϕz|≤δ 1 − δ2 3.10 n From 3.9 and 3.10, c follows. Moreover we get M1/2 ≤ CIϕ,g Bα → Q . From this, 3.4 n n 0 K and since Iϕ,g Bα → Q ≤ Iϕ,g Bα → Q the asymptotic relations in 3.2 follow, finishing the K K 0 proof of the theorem. Theorem 3.2. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N, or n 0 and α > 1. Let n Iϕ,g : Bα → QK be bounded. Then the following statements are equivalent. n a Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is compact. n b Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is compact. n c Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is weakly compact. d supa∈D D K1 − |ηa z|2 |gz|2 dmz < ∞, and lim sup r → 1 a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 21−α−n 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − ϕz dmz 0. 3.11 Abstract and Applied Analysis 9 Proof. By Lemma 2.4, we have that b is equivalent to c. d ⇒ a. Let fl l∈N be a bounded sequence in Bα , say by L, converging to zero n uniformly on compacts of D. Then fl also converges to zero uniformly on compacts of D. From 3.11 we have that for every ε > 0 there is an r1 ∈ 0, 1 such that for r ∈ r1 , 1 sup a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 21−α−n 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − ϕz dmz < ε. 3.12 Therefore, by Lemma 2.1 and 3.12, we have that for r ∈ r1 , 1 n 2 Iϕ,g fl QK |ϕz|≤r |ϕz|>r 2 2 2 n fl ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz 2 2 2 n < sup fl ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz CL2 ε. D |ϕz|≤r 3.13 n Letting l → ∞ in 3.13, using the first condition in d and sup|w|≤r |fl w| → 0 as l → ∞, n n it follows that liml → ∞ Iϕ,g fl Q 0. Thus, by Lemma 2.3, Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is compact. K a ⇒ b. The implication is trivial since Bα0 ⊂ Bα . b ⇒ d. By choosing fz zn /n! ∈ Bα0 , n ∈ N0 , we have that the first condition in d holds. Let fl z zl /l, l ∈ N. It is easy to see that fl l∈N is a bounded sequence in Bα0 converging to zero uniformly on compacts of D. Hence, by Lemma 2.3, it follows that n Iϕ,g fl QK → 0 as l → ∞. Thus, for every ε > 0, there is an l0 ∈ N, l0 > n such that for l ≥ l0 ⎛ ⎞2 n−1 2l−n 2 2 ⎝ ⎠ sup ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < ε. l−j a∈D j1 D 3.14 From 3.14 we have that for each r ∈ 0, 1 and l ≥ l0 ⎛ r 2l−n ⎝ ⎞2 ⎠ sup l−j n−1 a∈D j1 Hence, for r ∈ n−1 j1 l0 −1/l0 −n − j sup a∈D |ϕz|>r |ϕz|>r 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < ε. 3.15 , 1, we have that 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < ε. 3.16 10 Abstract and Applied Analysis Let f ∈ BBα0 , and let ft z ftz, 0 < t < 1. Then sup0<t<1 ft Bα ≤ fBα , ft ∈ Bα0 , t ∈ 0, 1, and ft → f uniformly on compact subsets of D as t → 1. The compactness of n Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK implies n n limIϕ,g ft − Iϕ,g f t→1 QK 0. 3.17 Hence, for every ε > 0, there is a t ∈ 0, 1 such that 2 2 2 n sup ft ϕz − f n ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < ε. D a∈D 3.18 −1/l0 −n From this and 3.16, we have that for such t and each r ∈ n−1 , 1 j1 l0 − j sup a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 2 2 n ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz f ≤ 2 sup |ϕz|>r a∈D 2 2 2 n ft ϕz − f n ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz 2 sup |ϕz|>r a∈D 2 2 2 n ft ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz 3.19 n 2 < 2ε 1 ft . ∞ From 3.19 we conclude that for every f ∈ BBα0 , there is a δ0 ∈ 0, 1 and δ0 δ0 f, ε such that for r ∈ δ0 , 1 sup a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 2 2 n ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < ε. f 3.20 n Since Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is compact, we have that for every ε > 0 there is a finite collection of functions f1 , f2 , . . . , fk ∈ BBα0 such that, for each f ∈ BBα0 , there is a j ∈ {1, . . . , k}, such that 2 2 2 n sup f n ϕz − fj ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < ε. a∈D D 3.21 1 and On the other hand, from 3.20, it follows that if δ : max1≤j≤k δj fj , ε, then for r ∈ δ, all j ∈ {1, . . . , k}, we have sup a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 2 2 n fj ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < ε. 3.22 Abstract and Applied Analysis 11 1 and every f ∈ BBα From 3.21 and 3.22, we have that for r ∈ δ, 0 sup a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 2 2 n ϕz K 1 − ηa z gz dmz < 4ε. f 3.23 If we apply 3.23 to the delays of the functions in 3.5 which are normalized so that they belong to BBα and then use the monotone convergence theorem, we easily get that for r > where δ is chosen as in 3.7 max{δ, δ} sup a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 21−α−n 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − ϕz dmz < Cε, 3.24 from which 3.11 follows, as desired. Theorem 3.3. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD and n ∈ N, or n 0 and α > 1. Then the next statements are equivalent. n a Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is bounded. n b Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is compact. n c Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is compact. n d Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is weakly compact. 21−α−n e lim|a| → 1 D K1 − |ηa z|2 |gz|2 1 − |ϕz|2 dmz 0. f dμϕ,g,n,α z is a vanishing K-Carleson measure. Proof. By Theorem 1.1, e and f are equivalent; by Lemma 2.4, c is equivalent to d, while, by Lemma 2.5, a is equivalent to c. Also b obviously implies a. a ⇒ e Let h1 and h2 be as in 3.5. Then from 3.7 and an elementary inequality, we get |ϕz|>δ 2 21−α−n 2 gz2 dmz 1 − ϕz K 1 − ηa z ≤C D 2 n 2 K 1 − ηa z Iϕ,g h1 z dmz C 3.25 2 n 2 K 1 − ηa z Iϕ,g h2 z dmz. D n n For f0 z zn /n! ∈ Bα , we get Iϕ,g f0 ∈ QK,0 . From this and since Iϕ,g hj ∈ QK,0 , j 1, 2, by letting |a| → 1, we get that e holds. e ⇒ b. We have that for every ε > 0 there is a δ ∈ 0, 1 so that for |a| > δ Φϕ,g,K a < ε. 3.26 12 Abstract and Applied Analysis On the other hand, by Lemma 2.6, Φϕ,g,K is continuous on |a| ≤ δ, so uniformly bounded therein, which along with 3.26 gives the boundedness of Φϕ,g,K on D. Hence, by n Theorem 3.1, Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is bounded. By Lemma 2.1, we have n 2 K 1 − ηa z2 dmz I lim sup f z ϕ,g |a| → 1 f Bα ≤1 D 2 ≤ C sup f Bα lim Φϕ,g,K a C lim Φϕ,g,K a 0, |a| → 1 |a| → 1 f Bα ≤1 3.27 n so Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is bounded. Now assume that fl l∈N is a bounded sequence in Bα , say by L, converging to zero n uniformly on compacta of D as l → ∞. To show that the operator Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is n compact, it is enough to prove that there is a subsequence flk k∈N of fl l∈N such that Iϕ,g flk converges in QK,0 as k → ∞. By Lemma 2.1 and Montel’s theorem, it follows that there is a subsequence, which we may denote again by fl l∈N converging uniformly on compacta of D n n to an f ∈ Bα , such that fBα ≤ L. Since Iϕ,g Bα ⊆ QK,0 , then clearly Iϕ,g f ∈ QK,0 . We show that n n lim Iϕ,g fl − Iϕ,g f l→∞ QK 0. 3.28 From 3.26, Lemma 2.1, and some simple calculation, we obtain sup δ<|a|<1 2 n n Iϕ,g fl z − Iϕ,g K 1 − ηa z2 dmz < 4CL2 ε. fz D 3.29 For a ∈ D and t ∈ 0, 1, let Ψt a D\tD 2 21−α−n 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz 1 − ϕz dmz. 3.30 Lemma 2.6 essentially shows that Ψt is continuous on D. Hence, for each a ∈ D, there is a ta ∈ r, 1 such that Ψta a < ε/2. Moreover, there is a neighborhood Oa of a such that, for every b ∈ Oa, Ψta b < ε. From this and since the set |a| ≤ δ is compact, it follows that there is a t0 ∈ 0, 1 such that Ψt0 a < ε when |a| ≤ δ. This along with Lemma 2.1 implies that sup |a|≤δ D\t0 D 2 n n Iϕ,g fl z − Iϕ,g K 1 − ηa z2 dmz fz 2 ≤ Cfl − f Bα sup Ψt0 a < 4CL2 ε. |a|≤δ 3.31 Abstract and Applied Analysis 13 n By the Weierstrass theorem fl → f n uniformly on compacta as l → ∞, from which along with 2.2 and since ϕt0 D is compact, for r supw∈ϕt0 D |w|, it follows that sup t0 D |a|≤δ 2 n n Iϕ,g fl z − Iϕ,g K 1 − ηa z2 dmz fz n 2 ≤ C sup fl − f z sup Φϕ,g,K a −→ 0, |z|≤r |a|≤δ 3.32 as l −→ ∞. n From 3.29–3.32 and since Iϕ,g f0 0 for each f ∈ HD, we easily get 3.28, from which b follows, finishing the proof of this theorem. Theorem 3.4. Let α > 0, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, g ∈ HD, and n ∈ N, or n 0 and α > 1. Then the following statements are equivalent. n a Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is bounded, 21−α−n dmz < ∞, and b supa∈D D |gz|2 K1 − |ηa z|2 1 − |ϕz|2 lim |a| → 1 D gz2 K 1 − ηa z2 dmz 0. 3.33 n Proof. Suppose b holds and f ∈ Bα0 . Then by Theorem 3.1, Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is bounded. We n show Iϕ,g f ∈ QK,0 , for every f ∈ Bα0 . Since f ∈ Bα0 , we have that, for every ε > 0, there is an r ∈ 0, 1 such that see, e.g., the idea in 35, Lemma 2.4 2 2αn−1 n ϕz 1 − ϕz2 f <ε for ϕz > r. 3.34 Thus, sup a∈D |ϕz|>r 2 n Iϕ,g fz K 1 − ηa z2 dmz < ε sup D a∈D 2 21−α−n 2 gz2 dmz. 1 − ϕz K 1 − ηa z 3.35 We also have lim |a| → 1 |ϕz|≤r ≤C ≤C 2 n Iϕ,g fz K 1 − ηa z2 dmz 2 f α B 1 − lim r 2 2αn−1 |a| → 1 2 f α B 1 − r 2 |ϕz|≤r lim 2αn−1 |a| → 1 D 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz dmz 2 2 K 1 − ηa z gz dmz 0. 3.36 14 Abstract and Applied Analysis n n Combining 3.35 and 3.36, we get Iϕ,g f ∈ QK,0 . Hence, Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is bounded. n n Conversely, if Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is bounded, then Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is bounded too. Thus, n by Theorem 3.1, we get the first condition in b. For f0 z zn /n! ∈ Bα0 , we get Iϕ,g f0 ∈ QK,0 , which is equivalent to 3.33, finishing the proof of the theorem. 0 If n 0, we simply denote the operator Iϕ,g by Iϕ,g . Theorem 3.5. Let α ∈ 0, 1, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, and g ∈ HD. Then the following statements are equivalent. a Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is bounded. b Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is bounded. c M1 : supa∈D D K1 − |ηa z|2 |gz|2 dmz < ∞. d dμ1 z |gz|2 dmz is a K-Carleson measure. e Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is compact. f Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is compact. g Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK is weakly compact. Moreover, if Iϕ,g : Bα → QK is bounded, then the next asymptotic relations hold Iϕ,g α Iϕ,g Bα → QK M11/2 . B → QK 0 3.37 Proof. The proof of the equivalence of statements a–d of this theorem is similar to the proof of Theorem 3.1; moreover, the implication b ⇒ c is much simpler since it follows by using the test function f0 z ≡ 1. That c is equivalent to e–g is proved similarly as in Theorem 3.2, by using the well-known fact that if a bounded sequence fl l∈N in Bα , α ∈ 0, 1 converges to zero uniformly on compacts of D, then it converges to zero uniformly on the whole D. The details are omitted. The proof of the next theorem is similar to the proofs of Theorems 3.3 and 3.4 and will be omitted. Theorem 3.6. Let α ∈ 0, 1, K ∈ Ω0, ∞, ϕ ∈ SD, and g ∈ HD. Then the following statements are equivalent. a Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is bounded. b Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is bounded. c Iϕ,g : Bα → QK,0 is compact. d Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is compact. e Iϕ,g : Bα0 → QK,0 is weakly compact. f lim|a| → 1 D K1 − |ηa z|2 |gz|2 dmz 0. g dμ1 z |gz|2 dmz is a vanishing K-Carleson measure.
