N2 - In this paper we study normal and cohyponormal weighted composition operators on the Hardy space H2. We show that if Wf,ᵠ is cohyponormal, then f is outer and ϕ is univalent. Moreover, we prove that when the composition map ᵠ has the Denjoy-Wolff point in the open unit disk, Wf,ᵠ is cohyponormal if and only if it is normal; in this case, f and ᵠ can be expressed as linear fractional maps. As a corollary, we find the polar decomposition of the cohyponormal operator Wf,ᵠ. Finally, we examine the commutant of a cohyponormal weighted composition operator.
