General sampling formula conjecture for Lambda-coalescents

About 14 years old · traced to

Let Λ\Lambda be a finite measure on [0,1][0,1] with Λ({1})=0\Lambda(\{1\})=0, and let ψ(q)=∫[0,1](e−qx−1+qx)x−2Λ(dx)\psi(q)=\int_{[0,1]}(e^{-qx}-1+qx)x^{-2}\Lambda(dx). For a sample of size nn, let XnX_n denote either the number AnA_n of allelic families or the number SnS_n of segregating sites. General sampling formula conjecture. For every Λ\Lambda-coalescent, the convergence

Xn∫1nqψ(q)−1 dq⟶θ\frac{X_n}{\displaystyle\int_1^n q\psi(q)^{-1}\,dq}\longrightarrow\theta

holds in the L1L^1 sense as n→∞n\to\infty.
