Monotonicity conjecture for coexistence probabilities in the two-type Richardson model
Monotonicity conjecture for coexistence probabilities in the two-type Richardson model
Consider the two-type Richardson model on with , normalized so that type 1 has intensity and type 2 has intensity . Let be the event of infinite coexistence, and let denote the law of the process.
Monotonicity conjecture. For ,
This conjecture formalizes the expectation that coexistence becomes more likely as the weaker type's intensity increases toward that of the stronger type. It is proposed as a possible route to proving the only-if direction of the coexistence conjecture; no resolution is supplied in the given text.
