Cartan Isometries and Toeplitz Operators on Cartan domains

Abstract

We provide a description of the Shilov boundary of the classical Cartan domain in terms of Jordan triple determinant. As a consequence, we obtained an intrinsic characterization of Cartan isometries. Further, we obtain (i) invariance of Cartan isometries under the action of the biholomorphic automorphism group, and (ii) a Brown-Halmos type condition for Toeplitz operators on the Cartan domain. Also, we show that the zero operator is the only compact Toeplitz operator. Finally, we study the $\boldsymbol T$-Toeplitz operators and reflexivity of a Cartan isometry $\boldsymbol T.$
