Makienko's conjecture on buried points in rational Julia sets
Let be a rational function. A point of the Julia set is buried if it does not belong to the boundary of a Fatou component. A Fatou component of is completely invariant if its image and full preimage under are itself.
Makienko's conjecture. The Julia set has buried points if and only if there is no completely invariant component of the Fatou set of .
Known examples with non-empty residual Julia sets have no Fatou component with a finite grand orbit, and the conjecture proposes an exact dynamical criterion for the existence of buried points. Its resolution is not specified in the source.
