Composition operators on some Möbius invariant Banach spaces

Abstract

We characterise the compact composition operators from any Mobius invariant Banach space to VMOA, the space of holomorphic functions on the unit disk U that have vanishing mean oscillation. We use this to obtain a characterisation of the compact composition operators from the Bloch space to VMOA. Finally, we study some properties of hyperbolic VMOA functions. We show that a function is hyperbolic VMOA if and only if it is the symbol of a compact composition operator from the Bloch space to VMOA.
