Equality of the KK- and 0\bbCp 0\bb{C}_p-Julia sets for rational maps

Let p2p\ge 2 be prime, let KK be a finite extension of Qp\mathbb{Q}_p, and let Cp\mathbb{C}_p be the completion of an algebraic closure of Qp\mathbb{Q}_p. For a rational map ϕK(z)\phi\in K(z), write JK(ϕ)J_K(\phi) and JCp(ϕ)J_{\mathbb{C}_p}(\phi) for its Julia sets on PK1\mathbb{P}^1_K and PCp1\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{C}_p}, respectively.

Julia-set equality conjecture. For every rational map ϕK(z)\phi\in K(z),

JCp(ϕ)PK1=JK(ϕ).J_{\mathbb{C}_p}(\phi)\cap\mathbb{P}^1_K=J_K(\phi).

The conjecture asks whether Julia points defined over KK are exactly the points of the Cp\mathbb{C}_p-Julia set that lie in PK1\mathbb{P}^1_K. An affirmative answer would establish consistency between the Julia sets over a finite extension of Qp\mathbb{Q}_p and over Cp\mathbb{C}_p; the source provides no resolution.
