Abstract

We characterize the simply connected domains $\Omega\subsetneq\mathbb{C}$ that exhibit the Denjoy-Wolff Property, meaning that every holomorphic self-map of $\Omega$ without fixed points has a Denjoy-Wolff point. We demonstrate that this property holds if and only if every automorphism of $\Omega$ without fixed points in $\Omega$ has a Denjoy-Wolff point. Furthermore, we establish that the Denjoy-Wolff Property is equivalent to the existence of what we term an ``$H$-limit'' at each boundary point for a Riemann map associated with the domain. The $H$-limit condition is stronger than the existence of non-tangential limits but weaker than unrestricted limits. As an additional result of our work, we prove that there exist bounded simply connected domains where the Denjoy-Wolff Property holds but which are not visible in the sense of Bharali and Zimmer. Since visibility is a sufficient condition for the Denjoy-Wolff Property, this proves that in general it is not necessary.<br />Comment: 23 pages, 2 figures
