Stability criterion for exceptional post-critically finite quadratic polynomials

From papers

Let SS be the set given in Proposition 3.8. For mSm\in S, define

f(x)=(xm2)2+m21Z[x].f(x)=(x-m^2)^2+m^2-1\in\mathbb{Z}[x].

Stability conjecture. For every mSm\in S, the polynomial ff is stable, meaning that every iterate fnf^n is irreducible over Q\mathbb{Q}. This conjecture concerns the three values excluded from Proposition 3.8; it is based on extensive computations in MAGMA, and no proof is supplied in the source.
