The Mandelbrot homeomorphism conjecture for modular matings

Let CΓ\mathcal{C}_{\Gamma} be the connectedness locus of the family Fa\mathcal{F}_a, and set

MΓ=CΓ{z:z43}.M_{\Gamma}=\mathcal{C}_{\Gamma}\cap\{z:|z-4|\leq 3\}.

Mandelbrot homeomorphism conjecture. The Mandelbrot set MM is homeomorphic to MΓM_{\Gamma}. The family Fa\mathcal{F}_a has been shown to mate parabolic quadratic maps with PSL(2,Z)\operatorname{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z}), and the corresponding parabolic Mandelbrot set is known to be homeomorphic to MM; proving the asserted homeomorphism for MΓM_{\Gamma} remains the stated goal.
