β-admissibility of observation and control operators for hypercontractive semigroups

We prove a Weiss conjecture on $\beta$-admissibility of control and observation operators for discrete and continuous $\gamma$-hypercontractive semigroups of operators, by representing them in terms of shifts on weighted Bergman spaces and using a reproducing kernel thesis for Hankel operators. Particular attention is paid to the case $\gamma=2$, which corresponds to the unweighted Bergman shift.
