There is one paper that may be of interest in _Studies in the History
of Buddhism_ (Delhi: B.R. Publishing Corporation), edited by A.K.
Narain:
Jaini, Padmanabh S.
1980 "The disappearance of Buddhism and the survival of Jainism: a
study in contrast,"

It has been some years since I read this, and cannot remember the
details unfortunately.
