The dynatomic curves for unimodel polynomials are smooth and irreducible

* Corresponding author
Abstract : We prove here the smoothness and the irreducibility of the periodic dynatomic curves $(c,z)\in \C^2$ such that $z$ is $n$-periodic for $z^d+c$, where $d\geq2$. We use the method provided by Xavier Buff and Tan Lei in \cite{BT} where they prove the conclusion for $d=2$. The proof for smoothness is based on elementary calculations on the pushforwards of specific quadratic differentials, following Thurston and Epstein, while the proof for irreducibility is a simplified version of Lau-Schleicher's proof by using elementary arithmetic properties of kneading sequence instead of internal addresses.
