Let Γ be the unit circle and D be the open unit disk in the complex plane, and denote the Riemann sphere by Ω. By an arc at a point ζ∈Γ we mean a continuous curve such that |z(t)| < 1 for 0 ≦ t < 1 and . A terminal subarc of an arc Λ at ζ is a subarc of the form z = z (t) (t0 ≦ t < 1), where 0 ≦ t0<1. Suppose that f(z) is a meromorphic function in D. Then A(f) denotes the set of asymptotic values of f; and if ζ∈Γ, then C(f, ζ) means the cluster set of f at ζ and is the outer angular cluster set of f at ζ (see [13]).
