The uniform boundedness conjecture in arithmetic dynamics January 14 to January 18, 2008 American Institute of Mathematics, Palo Alto, CA Organizers: Matthew Baker, Robert Benedetto, Liang-Chung Hsia, and Joseph H. Silverman Description: This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to arithmetic properties of preperiodic points for morphisms on projective space. The hope is to create new approaches to the study of arithmetic properties of periodic and preperiodic points for (quadratic) polynomials, for one-dimensional rational maps, and for projective morphisms of higher dimension. A specific goal of the workshop is to develop tools and a strategy for proving the first (highly) nontrivial case of the uniform boundedness conjecture in dynamics, namely for quadratic polynomials in one variable over Q.
