Abstract

Let K be a number field and let S be a finite set of primes of K containing all the infinite ones. Let ${\alpha}_0{\in}{\mathbb{A}}^1(K){\subset}{\mathbb{P}}^1(K)$ and let ${\Gamma}_0$ be the set of the images of ${\alpha}_0$ under especially all Chebyshev morphisms. Then for any ${\alpha}{\in}{\mathbb{A}}^1(K)$, we show that there are only a finite number of elements in ${\Gamma}_0$ which are S-integral on ${\mathbb{P}}^1$ relative to (${\alpha}$). In the light of a theorem of Silverman we also propose a conjecture on the finiteness of integral points on an arbitrary dynamical system on ${\mathbb{P}}^1$, which generalizes the above finiteness result for Chebyshev morphisms.
