Given two polynomials with integer coefficients, for how many primes p do the polynomials induce nonisomorphic dynamical systems mod p? This question will lead us to the study of the statistics of wreath products, the Galois theory of dynatomic polynomials, and other topics. This work is joint with Andrew Bridy.
