Abstract: Let varphi:mathbbDomathbbD be a holomorphic map with a fixed point alphainmathbbD such that 0leq|varphi(alpha)|<1. We show that the spectrum of the composition operator Cvarphi on the Fr'echet space extrmHol(mathbbD) is 0cupvarphi(alpha)n:n=0,1,cdots and its essential spectrum is reduced to 0. This contrasts the situation where a restriction of Cvarphi to Banach spaces such as H2(mathbbD) is considered. Our proofs are based on explicit formulae for the spectral projections associated with the point spectrum found by Koenigs. Finally, as a byproduct, we obtain information on the spectrum for bounded composition operators induced by a Schr"oder symbol on arbitrary Banach spaces of holomorphic functions.
