Here and throughout, A is a closed subalgebra of H that contains the disk algebra and M(A) denotes the maximal ideal space of A. Because A contains the function fo(z) = z, we can define the fiber Mλ(A) of M(A) for λ ε ∂D (the unit circle) in the usual way; i.e., Mλ(A) = {φ ∈ M(A): fo(φ) = λ}. The Bergman space of the unit disk D is the L2(D, dx dy)-closure of A. Let be the orthogonal projection. For f ∈ L(D, dx dy), define the multiplication operator Mf: L2(D, dx dy)→ L2, (D, dx dy) by

and define the Toeplitz operator by
