We investigate the following version of the well-known Rényi–Ulam game. Two players – the Questioner and the Responder – play against each other. The Responder thinks of a number from the set {1,,n}, and the Questioner has to find this number. To do this, he can ask whether a chosen set of at most k elements contains the thought number. The Responder answers with YES or NO immediately, but during the game, he may lie at most times. The minimum number of queries needed for the Questioner to surely find the unknown element is denoted by RUk(n). First, we develop a highly effective tool that we call Convexity Lemma. By using this lemma, we give a general lower bound of RUk(n) and an upper bound which differs from the lower one by at most 2+1. We also give its exact value when n is sufficiently large compared to k. With these, we managed to improve and generalize the results obtained by Meng, Lin, and Yang in a 2013 paper about the case =1.

在限制大小查询的 Rényi–Ulam 游戏中

我们调查了著名的 Rényi–Ulam 博弈的以下版本。两名玩家——提问者和回应者——互相对抗。响应者从集合中想到一个数字{1个,……,n},发问者必须找到这个数字。要做到这一点,他可以询问是否选择了一组至多k元素包含思想编号。Responder 立即回答 YES 或 NO,但在游戏过程中,他最多可以说谎次。发问者确定找到未知元素所需的最少查询次数表示为Rük(n). 首先,我们开发了一个高效的工具,我们称之为凸性引理。通过使用这个引理,我们给出了一个一般的下界Rük(n)以及最多与下限不同的上限2个+1个. 我们也给出了它的确切值n与相比足够大k. 有了这些,我们设法改进和概括了 Meng、Lin 和 Yang 在 2013 年关于该案例的论文中获得的结果=1个.
