Abstract
The Thoma simplex is an infinite-dimensional space, a kind of dual object to the infinite symmetric group. The z-measures are a family of probability measures on depending on three continuous parameters. One of them is the parameter of the Jack symmetric functions, and in the limit when it goes to , the z-measures turn into the Poisson-Dirichlet distributions. The definition of the z-measures is somewhat implicit. We show that the topological support of any nondegenerate z-measure is the whole space . The proof is based on results of arXiv:0902.3395 and arXiv:1806.07454.
