Universal Type I behavior for asymmetric initial densities

Let G=(Z,E)GG=(\mathbb{Z},E)\in\mathcal{G} be a graph satisfying the shrink property. For an initial spin configuration whose density of one spin is p(0,1)p\in(0,1), consider the corresponding zero-temperature Glauber Ising model I(G,p)I(G,p).

Universal Type I conjecture. The model I(G,p)I(G,p) is of Type I\mathcal{I} for every initial density p(0,1)p\in(0,1).

The paper proves the characterization of Type I\mathcal{I} behavior under the symmetric Bernoulli initial distribution p=12p=\frac12. On the nearest-neighbor lattice Z\mathbb{Z}, universality for all p(0,1)p\in(0,1) is known, but extending the relevant duality or constructing suitable monotone interfaces for general one-dimensional quasi-transitive graphs with interaction range K>1K>1 remains open.
