Let $T_\\phi$ and $T_\\psi$ denote the Toeplitz operators with symbols $\\phi$ and $\\psi$ respectively. We give an explicit formula for the determinant of $T_\\phi T_\\psi T_\\phi^{-1} T_\\psi^{-1}$ in terms of the products of the tame symbols of $\\phi$ and $\\psi$ on the open unit disk.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-01-19T18:01:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47B35", "15A15", "19F15" ], "keywords": [ "toeplitz operators", "tame symbol", "determinant", "open unit disk", "open neighborhood" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0905.4510P" } } }
