Let ϕ : D → D be a holomorphic map with a fixed point α ∈ D such that 0 ≤ |ϕ (α)| < 1. We show that the spectrum of the composition operator C ϕ on the Fréchet space Hol(D) is {0}∪{ϕ (α) n : n = 0, 1, · · · } and its essential spectrum is reduced to {0}. This contrasts the situation where a restriction of C ϕ to Banach spaces such as H 2 (D) is considered. Our proofs are based on explicit formulae for the spectral projections associated with the point spectrum found by Koenigs. Finally, as a byproduct, we obtain information on the spectrum for bounded composition operators induced by a Schröder symbol on arbitrary Banach spaces of holomorphic functions.
