Finite self-similarity conjecture for Julia sets of rational functions

About 22 years old · traced to

Let ff be a complex rational function, and let J(f)J(f) denote its Julia set. A compact metrizable space is finitely self-similar if it arises from a finite self-similarity system, meaning that its self-similarity equations involve only finitely many spaces. Julia-set finite self-similarity conjecture. The Julia set J(f)J(f) of any complex rational function ff is finitely self-similar.

This is stated as a more tentative conjecture after the proposed finite self-similarity of finite simplicial complexes. The source gives no resolution.
