Abstract

By working with all collection of all the Sarason Hilbert Hardy spaces for the annulus algebra an improvement to the results of Aryana and Clancey on eigenvalues of self-adjoint Toeplitz operators on an annulus is obtained. The ideas are applied to Toeplitz operators on the Neil algebra. These examples may provide a template for a general theory of Toeplitz operators with respect to an algebra.
