Abstract: We completely characterise the bounded sets that arise as components of the Fatou and Julia sets of meromorphic functions. On the one hand, we prove that a bounded domain is a Fatou component of some meromorphic function if and only if it is regular. On the other hand, we prove that a planar continuum is a Julia component of some meromorphic function if and only if it has empty interior. We do so by constructing meromorphic functions with wandering continua using approximation theory.
