Abstract
We prove an analog of Böttcher’s theorem for transcendental entire functions in the Eremenko–Lyubich class $ \mathcal{B} $. More precisely, let f and g be entire functions with bounded sets of singular values and suppose that f and g belong to the same parameter space (i.e., are quasiconformally equivalent in the sense of Eremenko and Lyubich). Then f and g are conjugate when restricted to the set of points that remain in some sufficiently small neighborhood of infinity under iteration. Furthermore, this conjugacy extends to a quasiconformal self-map of the plane.
We also prove that the conjugacy is essentially unique. In particular, we show that a function $ f \in \mathcal{B} $ has no invariant line fields on its escaping set. Finally, we show that any two hyperbolic functions $ f,g \in \mathcal{B} $ that belong to the same parameter space are conjugate on their sets of escaping points.
