Conjecture on the limiting empirical mass distribution of red leaves

Fix a critical initial law with (p(0),λ(0))C(p(0),\lambda(0))\in\mathscr{C}. Let Ntt\mathfrak{N}^t_t be the set of red leaves at time tt, let Xtt(u)\mathfrak{X}^t_t(u) be the mass of uNttu\in\mathfrak{N}^t_t, and let Nt=#NttN_t=\#\mathfrak{N}^t_t. For positive real numbers xtx_t satisfying xt/txR+x_t/t\to x\in\mathbb{R}_+ as tt\to\infty, consider the empirical random measure

1NtuNttδXtt(u).\frac{1}{N_t}\sum_{u\in\mathfrak{N}^t_t}\delta_{\mathfrak{X}^t_t(u)}.

Red-leaf empirical-measure conjecture. Under Pxt\mathbb{P}_{x_t}, this random measure converges in law for the topology of vague convergence, and its limiting law does not depend on xx. This concerns the typical mass of a red leaf in the critical Derrida–Retaux model; the source explicitly presents it as an unanswered further question and does not identify the limiting measure.
