The martingale existence conjecture for attraction-repulsion processes

From papers

Let ff be an interaction function satisfying the conditions of Theorem 2, and let nn be finite. A function

h:[0,1]nRh:[0,1]^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}

should exist such that {h(Φt)}tN\{h(\Phi_t)\}_{t\in\mathbb{N}} is a non-negative super-martingale or a bounded sub-martingale with respect to the canonical filtration, and such that for every ε>0\varepsilon>0 the condition

h(Φt+1)h(Φt)<ε\lvert h(\Phi_{t+1})-h(\Phi_t)\rvert<\varepsilon

implies that the process is within δ(ε)\delta(\varepsilon) of a trivial state, where δ(ε)0\delta(\varepsilon)\to0 as ε0+\varepsilon\to0^+. This would establish the martingale criterion for almost-sure trivialization.
