Summary:  Let $M$ be an invariant subspace of the multiplication operators $M_z$ and $M_w$ on the Hardy or Bergman space on $D^2=\{(z, w): |z|, |w| < 1\}$, and $S_f=P_{M^{\perp}} M_f P_{M^{\perp}}$ be the compressions on the quotient module ${M^{\perp}}$ of the multiplication operators $M_f$. We study the Schatten-von Neumann, in particular trace and weak trace class, properties of commutators $[S_f^\ast, S_f]$, and we prove the trace formulas for the commutators. Similar trace formulas for Hankel type operators are also obtained.
