Which properties are true about the following matrix? (Select all that apply.) $\begin{bmatrix} \frac{1}{5} & -\frac{1}{5} & \frac{1}{5} \\ \frac{4}{5} & \frac{6}{5} & \frac{4}{5} \end{bmatrix}$ each entry is in the interval [0, 1] each column adds up to 1 neither is true Determine whether the matrix is stochastic. $\circ$ stochastic $\circ$ not stochastic

Stochastic Matrices In Exercises 1-6, determine whether the matrix is stochastic. 1. [[2/5, -2/5], [3/5, 7/5]] 3. [[0.3(bar), 0.16(bar), 0.25], [0.3(bar), 0.6(bar), 0.25], [0.3(bar), 0.16(bar), 0.5]] 4. [[0.3, 0.5, 0.2], [0.1, 0.2, 0.7], [0.8, 0.1, 0.1]]

(10 points) A stochastic matrix is called doubly stochastic if its columns sum to 1. Let Xo, X1 be a Markov chain on the state space {1, k} with a doubly stochastic transition matrix P and an initial distribution that is uniform on S. Show that the distribution of Xn is uniform on S for all n > 0.

Determine whether $A$ is a stochastic matrix. If $A$ is not stochastic, then explain why not. (a) $A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0.4 & 0.3 \\ 0.6 & 0.7\end{array}\right]$ (b) $A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0.4 & 0.6 \\ 0.3 & 0.7\end{array}\right]$ (c) $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{1}{3} \\ 0 & 0 & \frac{1}{3} \\ 0 & \frac{1}{2} & \frac{1}{3}\end{array}\right]$ (d) $A=\left[\begin{array}{llr}\frac{1}{3} & \frac{1}{3} & \frac{1}{2} \\ \frac{1}{6} & \frac{1}{3} & -\frac{1}{2} \\ \frac{1}{2} & \frac{1}{3} & 1\end{array}\right]$
