Strong convergence of directed Kikuchi matrices for multiple variables
Prove that the strong-convergence statement for tuples of independent directed Kikuchi matrices extends to every number of variables \(k\ge 1\) and every parameter \(\alpha>0\) in the double limit \(n\to\infty\), followed by \(\ell\to\infty\) with \(r=r(\ell)\) satisfying \(r^2/\ell\to\alpha\).
References
We conjecture that the strong convergence statement for the directed Kikuchi matrix extends to any $k\ge 1$ and $\alpha>0$ (for $\alpha=0$, the linear operators of the corresponding ``1-Gaussian system'' are unbounded, so strong convergence does not make sense).
