      Let \(p: \mathbb{C} \to \mathbb{C}\) be an analytic polynomial of the \(\deg p =n>1\). Using some techniques, from complex dynamics, the authors show that \[ \#\{z\in\mathbb{C} : \overline{p(z)}=z\}\leq 3n-2. \] This proves a conjecture of \textit{T. Sheil-Small} and \textit{A. S. Wilmshurst} [Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 126, 2077--2081 (1998; Zbl 0891.30009)].
