Invariant graph conjecture for marked rational maps

Let (f,P)(f,P) be a marked rational map, with Julia set JfJ_f, and let GG be a graph in the sphere. An ff-invariant graph satisfies f(G)=Gf(G)=G; the post-critical set is denoted by PP. Invariant graph conjecture. Theorem should hold with n=1n=1: there exists an ff-invariant graph

GJfG\subset J_f

such that

PJfGP\cap J_f\subset G

and each component of

CG\overline{\mathbb C}\setminus G

contains at most one point of PP. The conjecture would follow in particular from the corresponding invariant-graph statement for marked expanding Thurston maps; the paper explains that it is known under certain Julia-set hypotheses, but leaves the general case open.
