Abstract: In the space \(\mathbb{C}\) of the parameters \(\lambda\) of the unicritical polynomials family \(f(\lambda,z)=f_\lambda(z)=z^d+\lambda\) of degree \(d>1\), we establish a quantitative equidistribution result towards the bifurcation current (indeed measure) \(T_f\) of \(f\) as \(n\to\infty\) on the averaged distributions of all parameters \(\lambda\) such that \(f_\lambda\) has a superattracting periodic point of period \(n\) in \(\mathbb{C}\), with a concrete error estimate for \(C^2\)-test functions on \(\mathbb{P}^1\). In the proof, not only complex dynamics but also a standard argument from the Nevanlinna theory play key roles.
