A Hankel matrix acting on spaces of analytic functions (1706.04079v1)

Abstract: If $\mu $ is a positive Borel measure on the interval $[0, 1)$ we let $\mathcal H_\mu $ be the Hankel matrix $\mathcal H_\mu =(\mu {n, k}){n,k\ge 0}$ with entries $\mu {n, k}=\mu _{n+k}$, where, for $n\,=\,0, 1, 2, \dots $, $\mu_n$ denotes the moment of order $n$ of $\mu $. This matrix induces formally the operator $$\mathcal{H}\mu (f)(z)= \sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\left(\sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \mu_{n,k}{a_k}\right)z^n$$ on the space of all analytic functions $f(z)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_kz^k$, in the unit disc $\mathbb D $. This is a natural generalization of the classical Hilbert operator. In this paper we improve the results obtained in some papers concerning the action of the operators $H_\mu $ on Hardy spaces and on M\"obius invariant spaces.
