Abstract

top
A bipolynomial is a holomorphic mapping of a sphere onto a sphere such that some point on the target sphere has exactly two preimages. The topological invariants of spaces of bipolynomials without multiple roots are connected with characteristic classes of rational functions with two poles and generalized braid groups associated to extended affine Weyl groups of the serie A . We prove that the cohomology rings of the spaces of bipolynomials of bidegree ( k , l ) stabilize as k tends to infinity and that the stable cohomology rings obtained for different l also stabilize as l tends to infinity. Moreover we prove an analog of Snaith splitting formula for the stable cohomology groups. The first terms of the sequence of stable cohomology rings are the same as the stable cohomology rings of the simple singularities of types A and B . Other terms of the sequence are still unknown.
