Poisson-Dirichlet graphons and permutons

Abstract

We introduce classes of supergraphs and superpermutations with novel universal graphon and permuton limiting objects whose construction involves the two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet process introduced by Pitman and Yor (1997). We demonstrate the universality of these limiting objects through general invariance principles in a heavy-tailed regime and establish a comprehensive phase diagram for the asymptotic shape of superstructures.
