Abstract

Answering a question posed by Adam Epstein, we show that the collection of\nconjugacy classes of polynomials admitting a parabolic fixed point and at most\none infinite critical orbit is a set of bounded height in the relevant moduli\nspace. We also apply the methods over function fields to draw conclusions about\nalgebraically parametrized families, and prove an analogous result for\nquadratic rational maps.\n
