Abstract

We introduce a new space ANlog,α(𝔹) consisting of all holomorphic functions on the unit ball 𝔹n such that fANlog,α:=𝔹φe(ln(1+|f(z)|))dVα(z)<, where α>1, dVα(z)=cα,n(1|z|2)αdV(z) (dV(z) is the normalized Lebesgue volume measure on 𝔹, and cα,n is a normalization constant, that is, Vα(𝔹)=1), and φe(t)=tln(e+t) for t[0,). Some basic properties of this space are presented. Among other results we proved that ANlog,α(𝔹) with the metric d(f,g)=fgANlog,α is an F-algebra with respect to pointwise addition and multiplication. We also prove that every linear isometry T of ANlog,α(𝔹) into itself has the form Tf=c(fψ) for some c such that |c|=1 and some ψ which is a holomorphic self-map of 𝔹 satisfying a measure-preserving property with respect to the measure dVα. As a consequence of this result we obtain a complete characterization of all linear bijective isometries of ANlog,α(𝔹).
