The Thurston Algorithm for quadratic matings. (arXiv:1706.04177v1 [math.DS])

Mating is an operation to construct a rational map f from two polynomials, which are not in conjugate limbs of the Mandelbrot set. When the Thurston Algorithm for the unmodified formal mating is iterated in the case of postcritical identifications, it will diverge to the boundary of Teichm\"uller space, because marked points collide. Here it is shown that the colliding points converge to postcritical points of f , and the associated sequence of rational maps converges to f as well, unless the orbifold of f is of type (2, 2, 2, 2). So to compute f , it is not necessary to encode the topology of postcritical ray-equivalence classes for the modified mating, but it is enough to implement the pullback map for the formal mating.
