Iterated Monodromy Groups of Quadratic Polynomials, I

Group Theory 2016-06-28 v2 Dynamical Systems

Abstract

We describe the iterated monodromy groups associated with post-critically finite quadratic polynomials, and explicit their connection to the `kneading sequence' of the polynomial. We then give recursive presentations by generators and relations for these groups, and study some of their properties, like torsion and `branchness'.
