Abstract

If φ\varphi is an analytic function from the unit disk D\mathbb{D} to itself, and φ\varphi is not a conformal automorphism, we denote by λφ\lambda_{\varphi} its Denjoy-Wolff point, that is, the limit of the iterates φ(φ(φ(0)))\varphi(\varphi(\cdots\varphi(0)\cdots)). A result of Heins shows that, given a sequence (φn)nN(\varphi_{n})_{n\in\mathbb{N}} of such analytic functions that convergence pointwise to φ\varphi, it follows that limnλφn=λφ\lim_{n\to\infty}\lambda_{\varphi_{n}}=\lambda_{\varphi}. This allows us to improve results about the contnuous extensions of the subordination functions that arise in the study of free convolutions. We also offer an alternate proof of the result of Heins.
