Abstract

We characterize the multiplication operators with closed range on the Bergman space in terms of the Berezin transform, and apply this characterization to finite products of interpolating Blaschke products. We give some necessary and some sufficient conditions for invertibility of general Toeplitz operators on the Bergman space. We determine the Fredholm Toeplitz operators with \(BMO^1\) symbols and the invertible Toeplitz operators with nonnegative symbols, when their Berezin transform is bounded and of vanishing oscillation.
