Abstract

A well-known problem in holomorphic dynamics is to obtain Denjoy--Wolff-type results for compositions of self-maps of the unit disc. Here, we tackle the particular case of inner functions: if fn:DDf_n:\mathbb{D}\to\mathbb{D} are inner functions fixing the origin, we show that a limit function of fnf1f_n\circ\cdots\circ f_1 is either constant or an inner function. For the special case of Blaschke products, we prove a similar result and show, furthermore, that imposing certain conditions on the speed of convergence guarantees L1L^1 convergence of the boundary extensions. We give a counterexample showing that, without these extra conditions, the boundary extensions may diverge at all points of D\partial\mathbb{D}.
