Monotonicity conjecture for stream-structure graphs

Let FtF^t be a semi-flow, and let Down\operatorname{Down} and Down\operatorname{Down}^* be stream structures with graphs Γ\Gamma and Γ\Gamma^*, respectively. Assume every node of Down\operatorname{Down} is a subset of a node of Down\operatorname{Down}^*. Let N1,N2N_1,N_2 be nodes of Down\operatorname{Down} and let N1,N2N_1^*,N_2^* be nodes of Down\operatorname{Down}^* such that N1asubseteqN1N_1 asubseteq N_1^* and N2asubseteqN2N_2 asubseteq N_2^*.

Monotonicity conjecture. If N1SN2N_1\thicksim_S N_2 in Down\operatorname{Down}, then N1SN2N_1^*\thicksim_S N_2^* in Down\operatorname{Down}^*; equivalently, Γ\Gamma maps into Γ\Gamma^*.

This conjecture asserts that enlarging the nodes preserves the graph relation. The supplied text gives no indication that it has been proved or refuted.
