Point processes related to the infinite symmetric group (Q4665063)

It is considered a two-parametric family of probability measures on an infinite-dimensional simplex (the Thoma simplex) as the spectral measures, corresponding to irreducible unitary spherical representations of the Gelfand pair \((G, K)\), where \(G= S(\infty)\times S(\infty)\), \(S(\infty)\) is the infinite symmetric group and \(K\) is the diagonal subgroup in \(G\). Using an embedding of the simplex \(\Omega\) to the space of configurations in the set \(I= [-1,1]\setminus\{0\}\), i.e. the unordered collections of points, which can accumulate only at \(0\), these measures define the related point processes. An explicit expression for the first correlation function of these processes in terms of a multivariate hypergeometric function (the Lauricella function in three variables) is presented. The general formalism is applied to calculate the correlation functions of the Poisson-Dirichlet processes. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1027.00015].
