Conjecture on stable fluctuations of the minimum in branching Brownian motion
Let be the minimum position in branching Brownian motion, let be the derivative-martingale limit, and let be a standard Gumbel random variable. Let be a Cauchy process, and assume that , , and are independent.
Conjecture on the minimum. As , for some constant ,
This predicts a refined fluctuation expansion for the minimum beyond its usual logarithmic order. The authors state that a formal formulation should use mod--convergence; the conjecture is presented as a direction for future work and remains open in the supplied source.
