Effectivity of Dynatomic cycles for morphisms of projective varieties using deformation theory

Given an endomorphism of a projective variety, by intersecting the graph and the diagonal varieties we can determine the set of periodic points. In an effort to determine the periodic points of a given minimal period, we follow a construction similar to cyclotomic polynomials. The resulting zero-cycle is called a dynatomic cycle and the points in its support are called formal periodic points. This article gives a proof of the effectivity of dynatomic cycles for morphisms of projective varieties using methods from deformation theory.
