Abstract
It is well known that the essential norm of a Toeplitz operator on the Hardy space H p(T), 1<p<∞ is greater than or equal to the L ∞(T) norm of its symbol. In 1988, A. Böttcher, N. Krupnik, and B. Silbermann posed the question on whether or not equality holds in the case of continuous symbols. We answer this question in the negative. On the other hand, we show that the essential norm of a Toeplitz operator T(a) with a continuous symbol a is less than or equal to [Formula presented].
