The no invariant line fields conjecture

Let ff be a polynomial, an entire transcendental function with finitely many singular values, or a rational map that is not double covered by an integral torus endomorphism. An invariant line field on the Julia set is a measurable Beltrami differential that is invariant almost everywhere and has modulus 11 on a positive-measure set and 00 elsewhere. No invariant line fields conjecture. The map ff supports no invariant line field on its Julia set. This conjecture is related to density of hyperbolicity and remains open; positive-area Julia sets are known, but no invariant line fields supported on quadratic Julia sets have been constructed.
