Abstract

Two proper polynomial maps f 1, f 2 :2⟶ℂ2 are said to be equivalent if there exist Φ1, Φ2Aut(ℂ2) such that f 22f 1○Φ1. We investigate proper polynomial maps of topological degree d≥2 up to equivalence. Under the further assumption that the maps are Galois coverings, we also provide the complete description of equivalence classes. This widely extends previous results obtained by Lamy in the case d=2.
