A classification of postcritically finite Newton maps

The dynamical classification of rational maps is a central concern of holomorphic dynamics. Much progress has been made, especially on the classification of polynomials and some approachable one-parameter families of rational maps; the goal of finding a classification of general rational maps is so far elusive. Newton maps (rational maps that arise when applying Newton's method to a polynomial) form a most natural family to be studied from the dynamical perspective. Using Thurston's characterization and rigidity theorem, a complete combinatorial classification of postcritically finite Newton maps is given in terms of a finite connected graph satisfying certain explicit conditions.

Combinatorial properties of Newton maps

This paper constructs a combinatorial model for all postcritically finite rational maps arising as the Newton's method of a complex polynomial. This model is used in [LMS] to give a combinatorial classification of postcritically finite Newton maps of any degree.

A Combinatorial classification of postcritically fixed Newton maps

We give a combinatorial classification for the class of postcritically fixed Newton maps of polynomials as dynamical systems. This lays the foundation for classification results of more general classes of Newton maps. A fundamental ingredient is the proof that for every Newton map (postcritically finite or not) every connected component of the basin of an attracting fixed point can be connected to $\infty$ through a finite chain of such components.
