Abstract: The paper concerns the limit shape (under some probability measure) of convex polygonal lines with vertices on mathbbZ+2, starting at the origin and with the right endpoint n=(n1,n2)oinfty. In the case of the uniform measure, an explicit limit shape gamma:=(x1,x2)inmathbbR+2colonsqrt1x1+sqrtx2=1 was found independently by Vershik (1994), B'ar'any (1995), and Sinai (1994). Recently, Bogachev and Zarbaliev (2011) proved that the limit shape gamma is universal for a certain parametric family of multiplicative probability measures generalizing the uniform distribution. In the present work, the universality result is extended to a much wider class of multiplicative measures, including (but not limited to) analogs of the three meta-types of decomposable combinatorial structures -- multisets, selections and assemblies. This result is in sharp contrast with the one-dimensional case where the limit shape of Young diagrams associated with integer partitions heavily depends on the distributional type.
