Abstract: We study Toeplitz operators on the Bergman space $ A^2_{\vartheta}$ of the unit polydisk $ \mathbb{D}^n$, where $ \vartheta$ is a product of $ n$ rotation-invariant regular Borel probability measures. We show that if $ f$ is a bounded Borel function on $ \mathbb{D}^n$ such that $ F(w)=\lim\limits_{\substack{z\rightarrow w  z\in\mathbb{D}^n}}f(z)$ exists for all $ w\in\partial\mathbb{D}^n$, then $ T_f$ is compact if and only if $ F=0$ a.e. with respect to a measure $ \gamma$ associated with $ \vartheta$ on the boundary $ \partial\mathbb{D}^n$ . We also discuss the commuting problem: if $ g$ is a non-constant bounded holomorphic function on $ \mathbb{D}^n$, then what conditions does a bounded function $ f$ need to satisfy so that $ T_f$ commutes with $ T_g$?
