The quadratic-differential characterization of the support

For a parameter bb, let Θ\Theta be the variable in the quadratic differential

Ψb,Λ=Θ(Θ+b)24ΘΛΘdΘ2,\Psi_{b,\Lambda}=-\frac{\Theta(\Theta+b)^2-4\Theta-\Lambda}{\Theta}\,d\Theta^2,

where Λ\Lambda is a complex parameter. Quadratic-differential support conjecture. The support of μb\mu_b coincides with the set of values of Λ\Lambda such that the differential Ψb,Λ\Psi_{b,\Lambda} has two critical horizontal trajectories. The preceding analysis identifies the relevant differential and motivates this characterization through the geometry of its zeros and pole, but the source supplies no proof or resolution of the claim.
