Abstract
We consider truncated Toeplitz operators acting on infinite dimensional model spaces. We then describe the kernels and ranks of commutators of truncated Toeplitz operators with symbols induced by certain inner functions. Our results generalize recent results of Chen et al. [Oper Matrices (to appear)] to infinite dimensional model spaces.
