Formal-series correlation inequality for FKG probability measures

At least 12 years old · documented by

Let XX be a finite set, let μ\mu be an FKG probability measure on 2X2^X, and let p(A)=p1(A)t+p2(A)t2+⋯p(A)=p_1(A)t+p_2(A)t^2+\cdots be a formal series whose coefficients are nonnegative monotone functions on 2X2^X. Formal-series FKG conjecture. The following formal series has nonnegative coefficients:

1−∏A∈2X(1−p(A))μ(A)≥0.1-\prod_{A\in 2^X}(1-p(A))^{\mu(A)}\geq 0.

This is a formal-series version of the correlation inequalities considered in the paper. The source presents it as a conjecture from the cited earlier work; its resolution is not established by the supplied text.
