Abstract
In this paper, we study the structure of Newton polygons for compositions of polynomials over the rationals. We establish sufficient conditions under which the successive vertices of the Newton polygon of the composition with respect to a prime can be explicitly described in terms of the Newton polygon of the polynomial . Our results provide deeper insights into how the Newton polygon of a polynomial evolves under iteration and composition, with applications to the study of dynamical irreducibility, eventual stability, non-monogenity of tower of number fields, etc.
