On the boundary continuity of conformal maps

Christian Pommerenke

Vol. 120 (1985), No. 2, 423–430
Abstract

Let the function f map the unit disk D conformally onto the domain G in C = C ∪{∞} . The prime end theory of Carathéodory gives a completely geometric characterization of the boundary behavior of f. Prime ends are defined in terms of crosscuts of G.

Our aim is to give a geometric description of the boundary behavior of f that refers only to the boundary ∂G and not to the domain itself. It can therefore be applied to any complementary domain of a connected closed set in C. Our description will however be incomplete because we will have to allow exceptional sets.
