1 A Primer o the Elemetary Theory of Ifiite Compositios of Complex Fuctios Joh Gill Sprig 07 Abstract: Elemetary meas ot requirig the complex fuctios be holomorphic Theorem proofs are fairly simple ad are outlied This is a brief compilatio of such basic results with examples prefaced by three fudametal theorems about holomorphic fuctios Beyod simple iteratio of a sigle fuctio or eve a fiite sequece of fuctios results appearig here refer to the followig: Ier compositios: F ( ) = R f ( ) = f f f ( ) = F( ) = lim f ( ) or R F ( ) = R f ( ) = f f f ( ) F( ) = lim R f ( ) Outer compositios: G ( ) = L g ( ) = g g g ( ) G( ) = lim L g( ) or = G ( ) = L g ( ) = g g g ( ) G( ) = lim L g ( ) = = As bacgroud we begi with three fudametal theorems for aalytic fuctios By requirig aalyticity Lipshit cotractio a frequet coditio for iteratio covergece ca be replaced with simple domai cotractio Schwar s lemma is ey to these results

2 Theorem (Herici [][974]) Let f be aalytic i a simply-coected regio S ad cotiuou o the closure S of S Suppose f( S ) is a bouded set cotaied i S The F( ) = f f f( ) = R f( ) α the attractive fixed poit of f i S 3 f( ) = + S = < 4 The F( ) α = Example: ( ) For Ier compositios there is: Theorem : (Lorete[][990]) Let { f } be a sequece of fuctios aalytic o a simplycoected domai S ad cotiuous o the closure of S Suppose there exists a compact set Ω S such that for each f( S) Ω The F( ) = f f f( ) = R f( ) α a costat uiformly o S aζ a ζ Example: The simple cotiued fractio is geerated by + + aζ f( ) = F( ) = f f f( ) If ζ < < R < the + a < ρr( R) f ( ) < ρr ρ < For example R = implies F ( ) ( ) α ζ for ζ < For Outer compositios there is: Theorem 3 :(Gill[3][99]) Let { g } be a sequece of fuctios aalytic o a simplycoected domai D ad cotiuous o the closure of D Suppose there exists a compact set Ω D such that g( D) Ω for all Defie G( ) = g g g( ) The G () α uiformly o the closure of D if ad oly if the sequece of fixed poits { α } of the { g } i Ω coverge to the umber α

3 e e e Example: let G() = 4 8 where We solve the cotiued fractio equatio G( α ) = α i the followig way: e 4 Set t ( ξ ) = ; let g () = t t t (0) Now calculate 3+ + ξ G () = g g g () startig with = Oe obtais α = to te decimal places after te iteratios Additioal theorems o etire fuctios appear i the addedum The results that follow do ot require aalyticity Some of these appear i [4] Theorem 4: Let { t } be a family of complex fuctios defied o S a simply-coected compact set i C havig the properties t( S) S ad t( ) t( ) < ρ ρ < for all uiformly o S Set G( ) = t t t( ) ad F( ) = t t t( ) The F( ) β S uiformly o S If t( α) = α the uique fixed poits of t G ( ) α uiformly o S if ad oly if α α = ε 0 Setch of proof : F + m( ) F( ) < ρ t+ t+ m( ) ρ DiamS ( ) 0 implies F ( ) 0 β Also F( ) F( 0) 0 uiformly o S Next Set σ = ε + ε + The ( ) α ρ α ε ρ σ G ( ) < To show G ( ) α uiformly o S implies α α α = assume there exists { } such that α α > r > 0 Now suppose is sufficietly large that G( ) α < ε for ρ ε < r For > + + ρ G ( ) α < ρg ( ) α + ρ α α < ρε + ρ α α ad G ( ) α > α α G ( ) α Therefore G ( ) α ( ρ) r ρε ε # > > ( )
