Monotonicity properties of exclusion sensitivity

In~\cite{bgs2013}, exclusion sensitivity and exclusion stability for symmetric exclusion processes on graphs were defined as a natural analogue of noise sensitivity and noise stability in this setting. As these concepts were defined for any sequence of connected graphs, it is natural to study the monotonicity properties of these definitions with respect to adding edges to the graphs, and in particular, whether some graphs are more stable or sensitive than others. The main purpose of this paper is to answer some such question from~\cite{bgs2013}. The main tool used is included results about the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of the generator of symmetric exclusion processes on complete graphs.
