Convergence of Equilibrium Measures under $K$-regular Polynomial Sequences and their Derivatives

Let $K\subset\mathbb{C}$ be non-polar, compact and polynomially convex. We study the limits of equilibrium measures on preimages of compact sets, under $K$-regular sequences of polynomials, that center on $K$ and under the sequences of derivatives of all orders of such sequences. We show that under mild assumptions such limits always exist and equal the equilibrium measure on $K$. From this we derive convergence of the equilibrium distributions on the Julia sets of the sequence of polynomials and their derivatives of all orders.
