We study here the structure of these Galois groups as $\\phi$ varies in a particular one-parameter family of maps, namely the quadratic rational maps having a critical point of period 2. In particular, we provide explicit descriptions of the third and fourth dynatomic Galois groups for maps in this family.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2023-08-13T12:03:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37P05", "11S20", "11G30" ], "keywords": [ "quadratic rational maps", "fourth dynatomic galois groups", "nonconstant rational function", "dynatomic polynomials", "arithmetic dynamics" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
