He–Schramm rigidity conjecture for circle domains
A circle domain is a domain whose boundary components are points or circles. It is conformally rigid if every conformal map of that is conformal outside maps onto itself, and a set is conformally removable if every homeomorphism of the sphere conformal off that set is Möbius. He–Schramm's rigidity conjecture. A circle domain is conformally rigid if and only if its boundary is conformally removable. The conjecture was subsequently disproved by Rajala: the forward implication fails, while the reverse direction remains open.
