This paper continues discussions in the author's previous paper about the Misiurewicz polynomials defined for a family of degree $d \ge 2$ rational maps with an automorphism group containing the cyclic group of order $d$. In particular, we…

In this paper, we study the dynamical uniform boundedness principle over a family of rational maps with certain nontrivial automorphisms. Specifically, we consider a family of rational maps of an arbitrary degree $d\ge 2$ whose automorphism…

We show that the set of conjugacy classes of cubic polynomials with a prefixed critical point, of preperiod $k\geq 1$, is an irreducible algebraic curve. We also establish an analogous result for quadratic rational maps. We then study a…

The behavior under iteration of the critical points of polynomial maps plays an essential role in understanding its dynamics. We study the special case where the forward orbits of the critical points are finite. Thurston's theorem tells us…

We prove a dynamical Shafarevich theorem on the finiteness of the set of isomorphism classes of rational maps with fixed degeneracies. More precisely, fix an integer d at least 2 and let K be either a number field or the function field of a…

Jones conjectures the arboreal representation of a degree two rational map will have finite index in the full automorphism group of a binary rooted tree except under certain conditions. We prove a version of Jones' Conjecture for quadratic…

Given a number field K, we consider families of critically separable rational maps of degree d over K possessing a certain fixed-point and multiplier structure. With suitable notions of isomorphism and good reduction between rational maps…

To every automorphism w of an infinite rooted regular binary tree we associate a two variable generating function \Phi_w that encodes information on the orbit structure of w. We prove that this is a rational function if w can be described…

Fix an integer $d\geq 2$. The parameters $c_0\in \bar{\mathbb{Q}}$ for which the unicritical polynomial $f_{d,c}(z)=z^d+c\in \mathbb{C}[z]$ has finite postcritical orbit, also known as Misiurewicz parameters, play a significant role in…

We introduce a class of polynomial maps that we call polynomial roots of powerseries, and show that automorphisms with this property generate the automorphism group in any dimension. In particular we determine generically which polynomial…

Let $K$ be a number field and $S$ a fixed finite set of places of $K$ containing all the archimedean ones. Let $R_S$ be the ring of $S$-integers of $K$. In the present paper we study the cycles for rational maps of $\mathbb{P}_1(K)$ of…

We produce a new family of polynomials f(x) over fields K of characteristic 2 which are exceptional, in the sense that f(x)-f(y) has no absolutely irreducible factors in K[x,y] besides the scalar multiples of x-y; when K is finite, this…

Some polynomials $P$ with rational coefficients give rise to well defined maps between cyclic groups, $\Z_q\longrightarrow\Z_r$, $x+q\Z\longmapsto P(x)+r\Z$. More generally, there are polynomials in several variables with tuples of rational…

Let $S$ be the collection of quadratic polynomial maps, and degree $2$-rational maps whose automorphism groups are isomorphic to $C_2$ defined over the rational field. Assuming standard conjectures of Poonen and Manes on the period length…

The present work investigates regular, semiregular, and chiral polytopes of any rank $d\geq 3$, whose automorphism groups are 2-groups. There is a large variety of rather small finite regular or alternating semiregular polytopes with…

We characterize polynomials having the same set of nonzero cyclic resultants. Generically, for a polynomial $f$ of degree $d$, there are exactly $2^{d-1}$ distinct degree $d$ polynomials with the same set of cyclic resultants as $f$.…

We study the dynamics of the unicritical polynomial family $f_{d,c}(z)=z^d+c\in \mathbb{C}[z]$. The $c$-values for which $f_{d,c}$ has a strictly preperiodic postcritical orbit are called Misiurewicz parameters, and they are the roots of…

We propose a handful of definitions of injectivity for a parametrized family of maps and study its link with a global nonuniform stability conjecture for nonautonomous differential systems, which has been recently introduced. This relation…

We determine necessary and sufficient conditions for unicritical polynomials to be dynamically irreducible over finite fields. This result extends the results of Boston-Jones and Hamblen-Jones-Madhu regarding the dynamical irreducibility of…

To directed graphs with unique sink and source we associate a noncommutative associative alsgebra and a polynomial over this algebra. Edges of the graph correspond to pseudo-roots of the polynomial. We give a sufficient condition when…
