We investigate the composition operators on the weighted Hardy spaces H 2 ( β ). For any bounded weight sequence β , we give necessary conditions for those operators to be isometric. The sufficiency of those conditions is well‐known for the classical space H 2 . In the case where β is non‐decreasing or non‐increasing, their sufficiency holds only for very few weighted spaces. We find out such spaces by characterizing the isometric monomial composition operators, first for a general β , then for any β as before. With no restriction on β , we provide a complete description of all isometric composition operators. We also prove that the unitary monomial ones are the same as those acting on H 2 . Such a fact extends to general symbols in the case where β is bounded (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
