The conjecture on Camacho–Sad indices of homogeneous convex foliations

Let d2d\geq 2. For a homogeneous convex foliation H\mathcal{H} of degree dd on PC2\mathbb{P}^{2}_{\mathbb{C}}, let CSd\mathcal{CS}_d denote the set of Camacho–Sad indices at non-radial singularities on the line at infinity. For a rational map f ⁣:PC1PC1f\colon\mathbb{P}^{1}_{\mathbb{C}}\to\mathbb{P}^{1}_{\mathbb{C}}, let M(f)\mathcal{M}(f) be the set of its nonzero, nonunit fixed-point multipliers, and let Md\mathcal{M}_d be the corresponding set for critically fixed rational maps of degree dd. The conjecture. For 2d4,5,72\leq d\neq 4,5,7,

CSd=(1d)±1,\mathcal{CS}_d=\\{(1-d)^{\pm 1}\\},

or, equivalently,

\mathcal{M}_d=\left\\{d,\frac{d}{d-1}\right\\}.

The conjecture predicts that these are the only possible Camacho–Sad indices, equivalently fixed-point multipliers, in the stated degrees; the exceptional degrees 44, 55, and 77 are excluded by the formulation.
