Abstract: In this note we show that if two Toeplitz operators on a Bergman space of the (Levi) pseudoconvex domain commute and the symbol of one of them is analytic and non-constant, then the other one is also analytic. This gives an affirmative answer of a problem of S. Axler, Z. Cuckovic and N. V. Rao (1999).
