The composition operator on the classical Hardy space H2, induced by a hyperbolic disk automorphism is considered. It is investigated when a H2-function induces under the given operator a minimal invariant cyclic subspace. Theorems where we use the behaviour of this function in the neighbourhood of the fixed points of the hyperbolic automorphism in order to decide if the cyclic subspace mentioned above is minimal invariant or not, are obtained. The inner eigenfunctions of the operator under consideration are characterized.
