Pairs of tree dessins, their Shabat polynomials, and monodromy groups
Abstract
Coverings of the Riemann sphere by itself, ramified over two points, are given by so-called Shabat polynomials. The correspondence between Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants and Belyi maps then implies a bijection between Shabat polynomials and tree dessins (bicolored plane trees). Dessins can be assigned a combinatorial invariant known as their passport, which records the degrees of their vertices. We consider all possible passports determining a pair of tree dessins, determining the associated Shabat polynomials and monodromy groups.
