Abstract

Let be a bounded, convex domain in , and suppose that is holomorphic. Assume that is analytic, bounded away from zero toward the boundary of , and not identically zero on the fixed point set of . Suppose also that the weighted composition operator given by is compact on a holomorphic, functional Hilbert space (containing the polynomial functions densely) on with reproducing kernel satisfying as . We extend the results of J. Caughran/H. Schwartz for unweighted composition operators on the Hardy space of the unit disk and B. MacCluer on the ball by showing that has a unique fixed point in . We apply this result by making a reasonable conjecture about the spectrum of based on previous results.
