Abstract
The goal of this thesis is to explore the properties of a certain class of sequences, rigid divisibility sequences, generated by the iteration of certain polynomials whose coefficients are algebraic integers. The main goal is to provide, as far as is possible, a classification and description of those polynomials which generate rigid divisibility sequences.
