Legendre-Fenchel Transform of the Spectral Exponent of Analytic Functions of Weighted Composition Operators

Urszula Ostaszewska, Krzysztof Zajkowski

Let

f f
be an analytic function with nonnegative coefficients. We derive the Legendre-Fenchel transform of the composition
\ln \circ f \circ \exp ln ⁡ ∘ f ∘ exp ⁡
as a function depending on coefficients of
f f
. We apply it to obtain the variational principle for the spectral exponent of operators that can be written as analytic functions of the weighted composition operators.
