Step 1
A simple example is a two-state chain: $$ \begin{tikzpicture}[->,>=stealth',shorten >=1pt,auto,node distance=2.8cm,semithick] \tikzstyle{every state}=[fill=red,draw=none,text=white] \node[state] (A) {$A$}; \node[state] (B) [right of=A] Show more…

Consider a discrete time Markov Chain {Xn} on the state space {1, 2, 3} with the transition matrix given as follows: P= 1/2 1/4 1/4 1/3 0 2/3 1/2 1/2 0 Then the Markov chain is Periodic and reducible aperiodic and irreducible aperiodic and reducible periodic and irreducible

Write the following transition diagram as a transition matrix and state if the matrix is a transition matrix for an absorbing Markov chain. (b) Draw a transition diagram for the following transition matrix and state if the matrix is a transition matrix for an absorbing Markov chain. [0.2 0.35 0.45] [0.1 0.5 0.5] [0 1 0]

4. (a) If P is the transition matrix of an irreducible Markov chain with finitely many states, show that Q := (I + P)/2, where I is the identity matrix, is also a transition matrix corresponding to an irreducible Markov chain. (b) Show that P and Q have the same stationary distribution.
