Let \(\Delta^{n}=\left\{z=(z_{1},\ldots,z_{n})\in\mathbb{C}^{n}:|z_{k}|<1,k=1,\ldots,n\right\}\) be the unit polydisk. Denote by \(\mathcal{B}\) the space of all Bloch functions on \(\Delta^{n}\).
Let \(f\) be a complex-valued holomorphic function on \(\Delta^{n}\). A holomorphic function \(\phi\) mapping \(\Delta^{n}\) into itself induces on \(\mathcal{B}\) the composition operator \(C_{\phi}(f)=f\circ\phi\).
In the paper, the authors obtain some necessary conditions on \(\phi\) for \(C_{\phi}\) to be an isometry on \(\mathcal{B}\). Non-trivial examples of isometric composition operators on \(\mathcal{B}\) are also given.
