Vershik's uniqueness conjecture for the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution under CCF
Vershik's uniqueness conjecture for the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution under CCF
Let be the space of decreasing nonnegative sequences with sum , and let denote the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution on with parameter . Let the CCF process be the continuous coagulation-fragmentation process arising as the scaling limit of the discrete coagulation-fragmentation chains under random transpositions. Vershik's conjecture. is the unique invariant distribution for the CCF. The Poisson-Dirichlet distribution with parameter is already known to be invariant; the conjecture concerns uniqueness of the invariant distribution for the limiting coagulation-fragmentation process.
