Abstract

Dual truncated Toeplitz operators on the orthogonal complement of the model space \(K_u^2(=H^2 \ominus uH^2)\) with u nonconstant inner function are defined to be the compression of multiplication operators to the orthogonal complement of \(K_u^2\) in \(L^2\). In this paper, we give a complete characterization of the commutant of dual truncated Toeplitz operator \(D_z\), and we even obtain the commutant of all dual truncated Toeplitz operators with bounded analytic symbols. Moreover, we describe the nontrival invariant subspaces of \(D_z\).
