Sarason's conjecture for the Hardy space

Let H2(T)H^2(\mathbb{T}) be the Hardy space, and let Tf\mathcal{T}_f denote the Hardy-space Toeplitz operator with symbol ff. For f,gH2(T)f,g\in H^2(\mathbb{T}), let P\mathcal{P} denote the Poisson extension of a function on T\mathbb{T} to D\mathbb{D}.

Sarason's conjecture. The operator TfTg\mathcal{T}_f\mathcal{T}_g^* is bounded on H2(T)H^2(\mathbb{T}) if and only if

supzDP(f2)(z)P(g2)(z)<.\sup_{z\in\mathbb{D}}\mathcal{P}(|f|^2)(z)\mathcal{P}(|g|^2)(z)<\infty.

This is the Hardy-space analogue of the Bergman-space Sarason conjecture and is related to the two-weight problem for the Riesz projection. F. Nazarov disproved it in 1997.
