设G是一个顶点集为V的无限连通图. G上的风景是一个映射V:V → 0,1(等价于G的顶点的0和1的赋值)。设Snn ≥0是G上的一个简单随机游动,起始于某个特殊顶点v0.设n和η是两个已知的场景,假设我们观测到两个序列中的一个,但我们不知道这两个序列中的哪一个被观测到。我们能否在零错误概率的情况下,确定观察到的是两个序列中的哪一个?我们证明了,如果G = Z或G = Z ~ 2,则对每个固定的ε和“几乎所有”的η,答案都是“是”。我们也给出了一些例子的graphsG,几乎所有的对(ε,η)是不可区分的,并讨论了这个问题的一些变种。
LetG be an infinite connected graph with vertex setV. Ascenery onG is a map ξ :V → 0, 1 (equivalently, an assignment of zeroes and ones to the vertices ofG). LetSnn≥0 be a simple random walk onG, starting at some distinguished vertex v0. Now let ξ and η be twoknown sceneries and assume that we observe one of the two sequences ξ(Sn)n≥0 or {η(Sn)}n≥0 but we do not know which of the two sequences is observed. Can we decide, with a zero probability of error, which of the two sequences is observed? We show that ifG = Z orG = Z2, then the answer is “yes” for each fixed ξ and “almost all” η. We also give some examples of graphsG for which almost all pairs (ξ, η) are not distinguishable, and discuss some variants of this problem.
