Abstract

We obtain estimates for the essential norm of weighted composition operators and the difference of composition operators between standard weighted Bergman spaces \(A^p_\alpha \). In particular, we generalize a result of J. Moorhouse which completely characterizes compactness of differences of composition operators on \(A^p_\alpha \).
