Abstract: Let $\Delta$ be the unit disc of $\mathbb C$ and let $f,g \in \mathrm{Hol}(\Delta,\Delta)$ be such that $f \circ g = g \circ f$. For $A>1$, let $\mathrm{Fix}_A (f):=\{p \in \partial\Delta \mid \lim_{r \to 1}f(rp)=p, \lim_{r \to 1}\vert f'(rp)\vert\leq A \}$. We study the behavior of $g$ on $\mathrm{Fix}_A (f)$. In particular, we prove that $g(\mathrm{Fix}_A (f))\subseteq \mathrm{Fix}_A (f)$. As a consequence, besides conditions for $\mathrm{Fix}_A(f) \cap \mathrm{Fix}_A(g) \neq \emptyset$, we prove a conjecture of C. Cowen in case $f$ and $g$ are univalent mappings.
