Hausdorff convergence to the optimizing convex set

About 6 years old · traced to

Let K\mathbf{K} be a compact convex set of area 11, let λ>0\lambda>0, and suppose that argmax⁡Φλ,K\operatorname{argmax}\Phi_{\lambda,\mathbf{K}} consists of the single element C⋆C^\star, where

Φλ,K(C)=L(C)3A(C)λ.\Phi_{\lambda,\mathbf{K}}(C)={\sf L}(C)^3{\bf A}(C)^\lambda.

Let dHd_H denote the Hausdorff distance. Hausdorff limit-shape conjecture. Under the conditional law Qn,⌊nλ⌋K{\sf Q}^{\mathbf{K}}_{n,\lfloor n\lambda\rfloor},

dH(CH(U[n+⌊nλ⌋]),C⋆)→nin probability0.d_H\left({\sf CH}(U[n+\lfloor n\lambda\rfloor]),C^\star\right)\xrightarrow[n]{\text{in probability}}0.

This is the claimed geometric consequence under the hypothesis of the preceding asymptotic-probability conjecture; the source provides no independent resolution.
