Abstract: For any integer $κ\geq 2$, the $κ$-local-field equation ($κ$-LFE) characterizes the limit of the neighborhood path empirical measure of interacting diffusions on $κ$-regular random graphs, as the graph size goes to infinity. It has been conjectured that the long-time behavior of the (in general non-Markovian) $κ$-LFE coincides with that of a certain more tractable Markovian analog, the Markov $κ$-local-field equation. In the present article, we prove this conjecture for the case when $κ= 2$ and the diffusions are one-dimensional with affine drifts. As a by-product of our proof, we also show that for interacting diffusions on the $n$-cycle (or 2-regular random graph on $n$ vertices), the limits $n \rightarrow \infty$ and $t\rightarrow \infty$ commute. Along the way, we also establish well-posedness of the Markov $κ$-local field equations with affine drifts for all $κ\geq 2$, which may be of independent interest.
