Julia sets and geometrically finite maps over finite extensions of the $p$-adic field

Abstract: Let $K$ be a finite extension of the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers, and $\phi\in K(z)$ be a rational map of degree at least $2$. We prove that the $K$-Julia set of $\phi$ is the natural restriction of $\mathbb{C}_p$-Julia set, provided that the critical orbits are well-behaved. Moreover, under further assumption that $\phi$ is geometrically finite, we prove that the dynamics on the $K$-Julia set of $\phi$ is a countable state Markov shift.
