Abstract

In this note we give a condition on a function h:RRh:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}, both necessary and sufficient, under which the nonlinear composition operator Hf=hfHf = h \circ f maps the space of all regular functions f:[a,b]Rf : [a,b] \rightarrow \mathbb{R} into itself. Moreover, we show that in this case the operator HH is automatically bounded in the supremum norm.
