Diffusive-scaling conjecture for the detachment-counting process
Diffusive-scaling conjecture for the detachment-counting process
Consider the detachment process coupling all -detachment processes on one probability space. Let , for , be the corresponding first detachment times, and define, for ,
with when no two passengers have been separated. Extend to all by linear interpolation and set
Diffusive-scaling conjecture. The laws of the processes , as , have a limit. The process has monotone non-decreasing paths, and the conjecture asks for a process-level limit under diffusive time scaling and linear spatial scaling. The source does not specify the mode of convergence or identify the limiting law.
