The main purpose of this very extended paper is to study the topological dynamics of monic polynomials \(f : \mathbb{C}\to \mathbb{C}\) of degree \(d\geq 2\) with connected Julia set \(J(f)\) and without irrationally neutral cycles. The study is based on introducing certain equivalence relations in the circle \(T = \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}\). These equivalence relations are introduced via prime end impressions. The collection formed by the prime end impressions of \(J(f)\) is a collection of compact connected subsets of \(J(f)\) that cover \(J(f)\). There is a canonical one-to-one correspondence between arguments in \(T\) and prime end impressions. That is, to each \(t\in T\) there corresponds a prime end impression \(\text{Imp}(t)\). The lamination of \(f\), denoted by \(\lambda(f)\) is defined as the smallest equivalence relation in \(T\) that identifies \(t\) and \(s\) whenever \(\text{Imp}(t)\cap \text{Imp}(s)\neq 0\). The paper is organized as follows: Section 2 -- Rays, impressions and fibres. Section 3 -- Trivial fibres. This section contains the construction of a puzzle. Section 4 -- Finiteness Theorem. In this section is proved that the fiber of a point in the Julia set of a polynonial without irrationally neutral cycles is the union of finitely many impressions. Section 5 -- Laminations. The lamination \(\lambda(f)\) is investigated. Section 6 -- Conformal realization. The aim of this section is to show that for any given real lamination \(\lambda\) without rotation curves there exists at least one polynomial \(f: \mathbb{C}\to \mathbb{C}\) without irrationally neutral cycles such that \(\lambda=\lambda(f)\).
