Abstract

For Toeplitz operators Tf (t) acting on the weighted Fock space Ht 2, we consider the semi-commutator Tf (t)Tg (t)−Tfg (t), where t>0 is a certain weight parameter that may be interpreted as Planck's constant ħ in Rieffel's deformation quantization. In particular, we are interested in the semi-classical limit (⁎)limt→0⁡‖Tf (t)Tg (t)−Tfg (t)t. It is well-known that ‖Tf (t)Tg (t)−Tfg (t)t tends to 0 under certain smoothness assumptions imposed on f and g. This result was recently extended to f,g∈BUC(Cn) by Bauer and Coburn. We now further generalize (⁎) to (not necessarily bounded) uniformly continuous functions and symbols in the algebra VMO∩L of bounded functions having vanishing mean oscillation on Cn. Our approach is based on the algebraic identity Tf (t)Tg (t)−Tfg (t)=−(H (t))Hg (t), where Hg (t) denotes the Hankel operator corresponding to the symbol g, and norm estimates in terms of the (weighted) heat transform. As a consequence, only f (or likewise only g) has to be contained in one of the above classes for (⁎) to vanish. For g we only have to impose limsupt→0‖Hg (t)t<∞ e.g. g∈L(Cn). We prove that the set of all symbols f∈L(Cn) with the property that limt→0⁡‖Tf (t)Tg (t)−Tfg (t)t=limt→0⁡‖Tg (t)Tf (t)−Tgf (t)t=0 for all g∈L(Cn) coincides with VMO∩L. Additionally, we show that limt→0⁡‖Tf (t)t=‖f‖ holds for all f∈L(Cn). Finally, we present new examples, including bounded smooth functions, where (⁎) does not vanish.
