Pseudohyperbolic disk conjecture for unicritical Blaschke products

About 3 years old · traced to

Let t∈[0,1)t\in[0,1), and let Θt\Theta_t be of the unicritical form referred to in the source. Let W(Θt)W(\Theta_t) denote the associated numerical range. Pseudohyperbolic disk conjecture. If n≥3n\geq3, then W(Θt)W(\Theta_t) contains a pseudohyperbolic disk of radius

cos⁡(πn+1).\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{n+1}\right).

The conjecture is motivated by evidence for n=6,7,8,11n=6,7,8,11 and by a preceding theorem, but the supplied text does not establish it in general. The notation for the unicritical form and the precise meaning of W(Θt)W(\Theta_t) are defined elsewhere in the paper.
