The melting pot of the US worked wonders in many regards. But its capacity is limited; the rate of arrival, compared to the country's population, has an upper bound when melting still works fir the newly arrived, when cultural transfer is still seen as valuable, as opposed to just keeping to live the way they used to, and failing to blend in enough as not to pose serious problems.

I don't think any of those concepts have established enough mathematical proofs to discuss with such confidence.

If 1M people of culture A arrive to a territory inhabited by 1 person of culture B, which culture will prevail? With a high confidence, A.
If 1 person of culture A arrives to a territory inhabited by 1M people of culture B, which culture will prevail? With a high confidence, B.
If we assume more or less continuous, non-chaotic behavior of this function, the range of A/B ratios where the change is hard to predict must be somehow narrower than [1/1M .. 1M], likely closer to [0.5 .. 2].
This is not a mathematical proof, of course, just an illustration. Mathematics is only possible where axioms hold; in human world, very-very few, if any, axioms ever hold.
