- We show that for the standard map family, for all values of the parameter, except one, the mapping has positive topological entropy. The main tool is the following result. Let $S$ be a compact connected orientable surface and $f:S \rightarrow S$ an area preserving orientation preserving $C \e 1$ diffeomorphism of $S$. Assume that $U$ is an invariant domain of $S$ such that $fr_S{U}$ has a finite number of connected components. Let $b$ be a regular ideal boundary point of $U$ which is fixed under the induced action by $f$ on the ideal boundary of $U$, and let $\hat{f}:C(b) \rightarrow C(b)$ the homeomorphism on the corresponding circle of prime ends. Let $Z(b)$ be the impression of $b$ in $S$ and assume that all fixed points of $f$ in $Z(b)$ are non degenerate. If there exists a fixed prime end $e \in C(b)$ then we know the following. $\left(1\right)$ If $p$ is the principal point of $e$ then $p$ is also a fixed point of $Z(b)$ and $p$ is a saddle. $\left(2\right)$ $C(b)$ has a finite number of fixed prime ends and there exists a finite singular covering $ ϕ:C(b) \rightarrow Z(b)$, which is a semiconjugacy between the mapping of prime ends on $C(b)$ and the restriction of $f$ to $Z(b)$. In particular, $Z(b)$ is the connected union of finitely many saddle connections and the corresponding saddles. This can be seen as a two dimensional generalization of the dynamics of homeomorphisms of the circle with fixed points.
