This paper is a continuation of [1] where we began the study of intertwining analytic Toeplitz operators. Recall that X intertwines two operators A and B if XA = BX. Let H2 be the Hilbert space of analytic functions in the open unit disk D for which the functions fr(θ) = f(re) are bounded in the L2 norm, and H be the set of bounded functions in H2. For φHφ, Tφ (or Tφ(z)) is the analytic Toeplitz operator defined on H2 by the relation (Tφf)(z) = φ(z)f(z). For φH, we shall denote {φ(z): |z| < 1} by Range (φ) or φ(D). Then where and σ(Tφ) = Closure(φ(D)) [1]. If φ ∊ H maps D into D, then we define the composition operator Cφ on H2 by the relation (Cφf) (z) = f(φ(z)). J. Ryff has shown [11, Theorem 1] that Cφ, is a bounded linear operator on H2.
