Abstract

We study composition operators on a class of bounded domains including convex domains \({\Omega \subset {{\mathbb{C}}^n}}\). We show that a general self-map \({\phi}\) of \({\Omega}\) always induces a bounded operator \({C_\phi: A^p_\alpha(\Omega) \to A^p_{\alpha+n-1}(\Omega)}\) and the weight gain \({n-1}\) is optimal in certain sense. When \({\phi}\) is smooth, we provide explicit examples which reveal aspects quite different from the strongly pseudoconvex domain setting.
