Abstract:
Let f be the generator of a one-parameter continuous semigroup of holomorphic self-mappings of the open unit disk ∆ in the complex plane. We use the resolvent method to show that if for some boundary point τ of ∆, the angular limit ∠ lim z → τ f (z )/|z - τ|3 = 0, then f vanishes identically in ∆.
