Abstract
We provide a characterization of the commutant of analytic Toeplitz operators TB induced by finite Blachke products B acting on weighted Bergman spaces which, as a particular instance, yields the case B(z) = z n on the Bergman space solved recently by by Abkar, Cao and Zhu [2]. Moreover, it extends previous results by Cowen and Wahl in this context and applies to other Banach spaces of analytic functions such as Hardy spaces Hp for 1 < p < ∞. Finally, we apply this approach to study reducing subspaces of TB in the classical Bergman space. As a particular instance, we provide a direct proof of a theorem of Hu, Sun, Xu and Yu [18] which states that every analytic Toeplitz operator TB induced by a finite Blachke product on the Bergman space is reducible and the restriction of TB on a reducing subspace is unitarily equivalent to the Bergman shift.
