Abstract:
On the Hardy spaces $H^p$ with $1 \leq p<\infty$, we consider the composition operators induced by analytic self-maps of the open unit disc $D$. First, we characterize those which are similar to contractions. Then, we give some necessary and sufficient conditions for them to be hypercontractive. Finally, we prove that, among those ones, only the zero-symbol composition operator sends $H^p$ into $H^{\infty }$ with a norm less than or equal to $1$.References
