Abstract
For a one-dimensional simple symmetric random walk , an edge (between points and ) is called a favorite edge at time if its local time at achieves the maximum among all edges. In this paper, we show that with probability 1 three favorite edges occurs infinitely often. Our work is inspired by T\'{o}th and Werner [Combin. Probab. Comput. {\bf 6} (1997) 359-369], and Ding and Shen [Ann. Probab. {\bf 46} (2018) 2545-2561], disproves a conjecture mentioned in Remark 1 on page 368 of T\'{o}th and Werner [Combin. Probab. Comput. {\bf 6} (1997) 359-369].
