Distinguishing certain random sceneries on ##Z## via random walks

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1997, vol. 34, issue 2, 123-132

Abstract: We prove a fixed versus random scenery distinguishability result (along the lines of Benjamini and Kesten) for 0-1 valued scenery on ##Z## where the distances between successive 1's in the random scenery are i.i.d. random variables with fat tails. This result is an application of a more general strategy for establishing fixed/random distinguishability.
