Graphon mixtures and exchangeable laws on infinite graphs #
Every exchangeable probability law on infinite graphs corresponds to a unique probability measure on the graphon quotient. The correspondence transports the finite-marginal mixture equivalence through extension to infinite graphs. Its finite upper masses are integrals of homomorphism densities. Dirac mixing measures give the joint sampling law of one graphon.
This is the graphon-mixture correspondence of Diaconis and Janson, Graph limits and exchangeable random graphs, Section 5.

The correspondence sends a mixing measure to the extension of its finite-window mixture law.
A Dirac mixing measure gives the infinite joint sampling law of its graphon.
The upper mass of each finite window of a graphon mixture is the mixing average of its homomorphism density.
