added paragraph on slope at t=1
Mar 1, 2019 at 14:53 comment added Max Yes I agree. (I have deleted the word "strictly". When I say "shifted to the left", I allow for a shift of distance 0.) But I think it is possible to show that for any (a,b) with 0.5 < a < b < 1, there is a positive lower bound on the fraction of all values which are in [a,b], for n large enough.
Mar 1, 2019 at 14:38 comment added Wojowu No, it's not enough. Suppose we had set of values $0/n^2,1/n^2,\dots,n/n^2$. The list contains no repetitions, yet the limiting curve is everywhere $0$.

removed attribut "strictly" although it will apply to the limiting curve
Mar 1, 2019 at 14:23 comment added Wojowu You sound like you haven't read my comment. I have pointed out that there may be repeated elements in the list of integrals, which would mean the elements are merely nondecreasing, not necessarily strictly increasing. And that still doesn't say anything about the limiting curve.
Mar 1, 2019 at 14:20 comment added Max The curve is increasing by construction: it results from sorting all possible values of the integral in increasing order!
Mar 1, 2019 at 14:11 comment added Wojowu I don't see why the curve will be strictly increasing. Firstly, there may be parenthesisations which lead to distinct funtions which nevertheless have equal integrals. Further, even if we somehow prove this is not so, it may be that the limiting function is constant on some interval.
