Abstract

A direct calculation of the vector of Riemann constants corresponding to the marked double of a multiply connected planar region is given. The existence of eigenvalues of self-adjoint Toeplitz operators acting on Hardy spaces associated with non-negative representing measures on 1-holed planar regions is established in the case where there exists one bounded component in the complement of the essential range of the symbol \(\phi \) of the operator. The analysis is done by using the zeros of translations of theta functions restricted to \(\mathbb R \) in \(\mathbb C \).
