Λ-Cannings convergence to tree-valued Λ-resampling dynamics

Let ΛMf([0,1])\Lambda\in\mathcal M_f([0,1]) satisfy the dust-free condition

01Λ(dx)x1=.\int_0^1\Lambda(\mathrm{d}x)\,x^{-1}=\infty.

For the corresponding tree-valued Λ\Lambda-Cannings dynamics VN,Λ\mathcal V^{N,\Lambda}, suppose there is a random element V0Λ\mathcal V_0^\Lambda such that V0N,ΛV0Λ\mathcal V_0^{N,\Lambda}\Rightarrow\mathcal V_0^\Lambda as NN\to\infty. Λ-Cannings convergence conjecture. There exists a U\mathbb U-valued process VΛDU(R+)\mathcal V^\Lambda\in\mathcal D_{\mathbb U}(\mathbb R_+) with VN,ΛVΛ\mathcal V^{N,\Lambda}\Rightarrow\mathcal V^\Lambda as NN\to\infty; moreover, VΛ\mathcal V^\Lambda is Feller and strong Markov and has the Λ\Lambda-coalescent measure tree as its unique equilibrium. The conjecture identifies the infinite-population limit and its long-term equilibrium for multiple-merger genealogies.
