Fixed Points of Commuting Holomorphic Maps Without Boundary Regularity (Q4522138)

It is a result of \textit{A. L. Shields} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 15, 703-706 (1964; Zbl 0129.29104)] that a family of holomorphic self-mappings of the unit disk which are continuous up to the boundary and commute under composition has a common fixed point. This result has been extended to domains in \(\mathbb{C}^n\) by several authors. In the present paepr a version of the Shields theorem for domain in \(\mathbb{C}^n\) without any assumption about the regularity of the maps on the boundary is proved. The author considers a class of domains in \(\mathbb{C}^n\) with properties that resemble the ones stated in the classical Denjoy and Wolff theorems, and the Julia lemma. Suppose \(\Omega\) is such a domain and let \(f,g: \Omega\to\Omega\) be two commuting holomorphic mappings. If \(f\) has no fixed points, then there exists a boundary point \(x\in\partial\Omega\) such that \(f\) and \(g\) have admissible limit at \(x\) equal to \(x\).
