Presentation functions provide the time-ordered points of the forward dynamics of a system as successive inverse images. They generally determine objects constructed on trees, regular or otherwise, and immediately determine a functional form of the transfer matrix of these systems. Presentation functions for regular binary trees determine the associated forward dynamics to be that of a period doubling fixed point. They are generally parametrized by the trajectory scaling function of the dynamics in a natural way. The requirement that the forward dynamics be smooth with a critical point determines a complete set of equations whose solution is the scaling function. These equations are compatible with a dynamics in the space of scalings which is conjectured, with numerical and intuitive support, to possess its solution as a unique, globally attracting fixed point. It is argued that such dynamics is to be sought as a program for the solution of chaotic dynamics. In the course of the exposition new information pertaining to universal mode locking is presented.
