3 The Reconstruction Problem: A Story
4 Alice and Bob
5 Alice, Bob and G root
6 Exit Bob root
7 Alice samples a proper coloring (uniformly)... root
8 ... and hides a ball B(root, t) root
9 Bob... root?
10 ... guesses right! root!
11 The problem Does Bob have a chance?
12 The problem Does Bob have a bigger chance than when everything is hidden?

42 Can you check this condition? Theorem Let G N be a random graph with M = Nγ edges, and P{ G N } the measure over ɛ-proper colorings. If γ < (q 1) log(q 1) then Graph solvable Tree solvable. Proof: Uses second moment calculation in Achlioptas, Naor (2004). Theorem Let G N be a random graph with M = Nγ edges, and P{ G N } the Boltzmann measure for Ising spin-glasses. Then reconstruction is solvabel if and only if 2γ(1 2ɛ) 2 > 1. Proof: Uses Large deviation result in Guerra, Toninelli (2003).
