Abstract
  • We introduce a numerical criterion which allows us to bound the degree of any algebraic integer having all of Galois conjugates in an interval of length less than 4. Using this criterion, we study two arithmetic dynamical questions with local rationality conditions. First, we classify all unicritical polynomials defined over the maximal totally real algebraic extension of rational numbers. Second, we classify all quadratic unicritical polynomials defined over rational numbers which have finitely many totally real (respectively, totally p-adic) preperiodic points. We also explicitly compute totally real preperiodic points of some quadratic unicritical polynomials defined over rational numbers. Our strategy uses tools from complex and p-adic potential theory and dynamics.
