Let \(f\) be a probability generating function on \([0,1]\). Various theorems concerning the convergence of the iterates \(f_ n\) of \(f\) to fixed points as \(n\to\infty\) are stated. No proofs are given. The results include rates for \(f\) and \(f^{-1}\). Iterates of independent identically distributed stable processes are studied and a trichotomy based on the order of the stability is established.
