On composition sequences in the unit disk (Q1337432)

The author considers sequences of the forward compositions \(f_ n= \varphi_ n\circ\cdots\circ \varphi_ 2\circ \varphi_ 1\) of analytic endomorphisms of the unit disc \(\mathbb{D}\). The main result describes the behaviour of the normalized functions \[ g_ n(z)= {f_ n(z)- z_ n\over 1- \bar z_ n f_ n(z)},\quad z_ n= f_ n(0). \] Theorem. If \[ \inf_ n {1- | z|_{n- 1}|^ 2\over 1- | z_ n|^ 2} | \varphi_ n' (z_{n- 1})|\geq \alpha> 0, \] then the limit \(\lim_{n\to \infty} {g_ n(z)\over g_ n'(0)}= z+\cdots\) exists locally uniformly in \(\mathbb{D}\) and is univalent in \(\{| z|< \alpha/(1+ \sqrt{1+ \alpha^ 2})\}\). A number of examples is given.
