IDA AND HANKEL OPERATORS ON FOCK SPACES

We introduce a new space IDA of locally integrable functions whose integral distance to holomorphic functions is finite, and use it to completely characterize boundedness and compactness of Hankel operators on weighted Fock spaces. As an application, for bounded symbols, we show that the Hankel operator Hf is compact if and only if H f over bar is compact, which complements the classical compactness result of Berger and Coburn. Motivated by recent work of Bauer, Coburn, and Hagger, we also apply our results to the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization.
