1. Introduction
For any

for
, the closed polydisc centered at the origin on
with polyradius
is defined by
Recall that an open domain
is called the complete Reinhardt domain centered at the origin if for any
, the polydisc
is a nonempty subset of
, where
The base of the Reinhardt domain
is a subset
of
defined by
If the set
is convex, then the Reinhardt domain
is said to be logarithmically convex. The following useful characterizations were established in [
1]:
Theorem 1 (see [
1])
. Let Ω
be the Reinhardt domain. Then, the following are equivalent:- (1)
Ω is logarithmically convex;
- (2)
Ω is a region of convergence of a power series;
- (3)
Ω is a domain of holomorphy.
Let set
denote the bounded holomorphy complete Reinhardt centered at the origin. As completed in [
2], we introduce a nonnegative measurable weight function
. For
, we have

is the Lebesgue measure on the n-dimensional complex plane. We select the weight function
to be bounded in a neighborhood of the origin and to not vanish in this neighborhood.
Let

The weighted pluriharmonic Bergman space
is the subspace of

is a closed subspace of
and hence is a Hilbert space, we can check that

is the weighted holomorphic Bergman space. See [
3] for more information.
In the setting of the Bergman-type space, some researchers have undertaken a lot of work on the algebraic properties of Toeplitz operators and Hankel operators. Toeplitz operators on the harmonic Bergman space have many dissimilar properties compared to the Bergman space. The product of analytic functions is still analytic, but this is not true for harmonic functions, which creates some difficulties in the research. Therefore, we need to find more methods and tools. In their paper [
4], Choe and Lee characterized the commutativity of Toeplitz operators on the harmonic Bergman space over a unit disk; in particular, they showed that two analytic Toeplitz operators commute only when their symbols and the constant 1 are linearly dependent. However, the commutativity of two analytic Toeplitz operators is always held on analytic Bergman space. Guo and Zheng [
5] studied the Toeplitz algebra and the Hankel algebra by using the compactness of Toeplitz operators on the harmonic Bergman space. Lee and Zhu [
6] investigated the commutativity and regularity of Toeplitz operators by applying certain integral and differential equations on the pluriharmonic Bergman space over the unit ball; the commutativity of the Toeplitz operators is similar to the case of the unit disk in [
4]. Lee [
7] proved the commutativity of Toeplitz operators
with radial symbol
u and Toeplitz operators
with pluriharmonic symbol
v; he drew particular attention to the fact that the two Toeplitz operators can commute only when at least one of the two symbol functions is a constant on a unit ball. Choe and Nam [
8] characterized commuting and normal Toeplitz operators on the pluriharmonic Bergman space of the polydisk, which are similar to those in [
7]. On the cutoff harmonic Bergman space over a unit disk, Yang et al. [
9,
10] separately considered certain algebraic properties of the Toeplitz and little Hankel operators.
In the papers [
2,
11,
12], several mathematicians analyzed the effect of the radial component of a symbol function for the spectral, compactness, Fredholm properties, and
-algebra generated by certain Toeplitz operators on Bergman space. In the paper [
13], Li and Lu characterized the related problems of radial operators and Toeplitz operators on the weighted Bergman spaces by using the
-Berezin transform over the polydisk. In [
14,
15], Sun et al. studied some properties of Toeplitz operators with radial symbols on weighted pluriharmonic Bergman spaces and harmonic Fock spaces, respectively.
Inspired by the above-mentioned results, in this paper, we will research the problems of the Toeplitz operators with radial symbols on the weighted pluriharmonic Bergman space over the Reinhardt domains. The main objective of this paper is to extend a part of the results from the weighted holomorphic Bergman space
to the weighted pluriharmonic Bergman space
. This method is based on a set of newly added differential equation operators. Meanwhile, the Toeplitz operators with radial and separately radial symbols on the Bergman type can generate
-algebras; for example, see [
2,
12]. In [
16], Quiroga-Barranco further studied the commutation of
-algebra generated by Toeplitz operators with radial and separately radial symbols. The results of this paper can lay a foundation for further research with respect to the algebraic properties on harmonic Bergman spaces. Based on the techniques in [
2,
14,
15,
17,
18], in
Section 2, we will construct an operator
A whose restriction onto the weighted pluriharmonic Bergman space
over the Reinhardt domains is an isometric isomorphism between
and the subset
of
with
where
is an identity operator and
is the orthogonal projection of
onto
. We will show that each Toeplitz operator
with radial symbols on
is a unitary equivalent to the multiplication operator
acting on
. In
Section 3, we will use the Wick and anti-Wick functions of a Toeplitz operator with a radial symbol to give complete theory and provide its spectral decomposition. Finally, in
Section 4, we specify the above-obtained results on the Reinhardt domains for the unit ball.
