Concavity conjecture for the ground state of the one-dimensional symmetric stable process
Let , and let be the ground state eigenfunction for the symmetric stable process of index killed upon leaving . Concavity conjecture. The function is concave on . The only known case is , where concavity was proved for the Cauchy process; the conjecture proposes this property for all symmetric stable processes in the interval.
