Convergence of composition sequences of bilinear and other transformations \(\{f_ n\}\), \(f_ n\to z\) (Q1363331)

Let \(\{f_n\}\) be a sequence of complex valued functions of a complex variable \(z\) such that \(\lim_{n\to\infty}f_n(z)=z\) on some set \(S\) and such that the inner and outer compositions \[ F_n(z)=f_1\circ f_2\circ\dots\circ f_n(z)\qquad G_n(z)=f_n\circ f_{n-1}\circ\dots\circ f_1(z) \] respectively both exist in \(S\). The author finds sufficient conditions for \(\{F_n(z)\}\) and \(\{G_n(z)\}\) to converge to constant functions in \(S\) in the two cases 1) all \(f_n\) are linear fractional transformations, 2) all \(f_n\) are analytic in the convex set \(S\) and \(f_n(S)\subseteq S\).
