Resultant measures and minimal resultant loci for non-archimedean polynomial dynamics

Abstract

We compute the resultant measures for iterations PjP^j, j1j\ge 1, of a polynomial PP of degree >1>1 on the nn-th level Trucco's trees Γn\Gamma_n, n0n\ge 0, in the Berkovich projective line over a non-archimedean field and also determine their barycenters. As applications, we study the asymptotic of those barycenters as nn\to\infty, and establish a uniform stationarity of Rumely's minimal resultant loci of PjP^j or equivalently that of the potential semistable reduction loci of PjP^j as jj\to\infty. We also establish several equidistribution results for the resultant measures themselves as nn\to\infty.
