Irreducibility of periodic curves in cubic polynomial moduli space

Dynamical Systems 2021-03-09 v2

Abstract

In the moduli space of complex cubic polynomials with a marked critical point, given any p>=1, we prove that the loci formed by polynomials with the marked critical point periodic of period p is an irreducible curve. Thus answering a question posed by Milnor in the 90's.
