contents Let $f$ be a dominant endomorphism of the projective line, which is not conjugate to a power map $z\mapsto z^{\pm d}$. We consider the centralizers of the iterates of $f$, $C(f^{n}):=\{\textrm{dominant}\;g:\mathbb{P}^{1}\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^{1}\;|\; g\circ f^{n}=f^{n}\circ g\}$, $n\geq1$, and prove that their union is equal to $C(f^{N})$ for some $N\geq1$. This solves a conjecture of F. Pakovich. As an application, we obtain a Tits alternative for cancellative semigroups of endomorphisms of the projective line, without an assumption of finite generation, extending the results of J.P. Bell, K. Huang, W. Peng and T.J. Tucker.

Let $f$ be a dominant endomorphism of the projective line, which is not conjugate to a power map $z\mapsto z^{\pm d}$. We consider the centralizers of the iterates of $f$, $C(f^{n}):=\{\textrm{dominant}\;g:\mathbb{P}^{1}\rightarrow\mathbb{P}^{1}\;|\; g\circ f^{n}=f^{n}\circ g\}$, $n\geq1$, and prove that their union is equal to $C(f^{N})$ for some $N\geq1$. This solves a conjecture of F. Pakovich. As an application, we obtain a Tits alternative for cancellative semigroups of endomorphisms of the projective line, without an assumption of finite generation, extending the results of J.P. Bell, K.
