Convergence almost everywhere of characteristic functions
In your example $\delta_{a_n}\longrightarrow \delta_0$ weakly (by the continuity theorem, since $\Phi_n\longrightarrow \Phi_0$ pointwise). Your reminder is incorrect: $\mu_n\longrightarrow \mu$ weakly iff $\mu_n(E)\longrightarrow \mu(E)$ for all $\mu$-continuity sets $E$. And here $E$ is clearly not a continuity set of $\delta_0$ since $0\in \partial E$.

Better solution for an evaluation over a fully connected, symmetric tensor network graph?
It is quite conceivable that similar structures as above appear also for more complicate $T$ -functions (but that is only a guess). If the final sums can be expressed via cycle counts generating functions might simplify a lot.

Your interpretation of the "coefficient operator" is correct. The first formula follows in a (more or less) routine way from the known generating function of the cycle type of (uniform) self mappings of $[n]$, the formula for $x$ then only needs basic properties of coefficient extraction.

(I think) your sum can be simplified using generating functions. It can be shown that $N_{d,k}=d! [y^dt^k] e^{(d-1)y+(t-1)\frac{y^2}{2}}$ and that consequently your $x$ can be expressed as $$x=r^{|E|} d! [y^d] e^{(d-1)\frac{s_1}{r}y+\big(\frac{s_2}{r}-\frac{s_1^2}{r^2}\big)\frac{y^2}{2}}$$ (essentially a Hermite polynomial evaluated at an imaginary argument). Is that of interest or are you content with what you have?

Symmetric polynomial inequality arising from the fixed-point measure of a random permutation
Your final inequality appears to be violated for $n=3, a_1=a_2=a_3=\frac{1}{2}$ ?

Asking for a proof for a sum of products of binomials: an "interesting" identity?
@Fedor Petrov: No, it can be derived independently, using a differential equation/undetermined coefficients. Thanks, I have added that information.

About the theorem of Weierstrass?
An elementary proof of the Stone-Weierstrass theorem is given in ams.org/journals/proc/1981-081-01/S0002-9939-1981-0589143-8/‌​…

Expected number of compositions needed to get constant function
Indeed, most of these results had already been obtained (in a slightly different guise) by J.F.C. Kingman in 1982, see inference.org.uk/sustainable/… . A generalization to more general distributions was given in arxiv.org/pdf/0809.4233.pdf

Kernel of a matrix and the Catalan numbers
Another observation: the ($\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$-) dimension of the kernel of $M_n \bmod 2$ seems to be $\frac{2^n+2}{3}$ for even $n$ and $\frac{2^n+1}{3}$ for odd $n$.

"Lagrange inversion" around an extremum
These things are well known. Look up "singular inversion" and "singular expansion", see e.g. Lemma IV.3 and Thm VI.6 in the book "Analytic Combinatorics" by Flajolet and Sedgewick.
