متن کاملA Second Look at General Markov ChainsDavid
In the spirit of Chapter 2, this is an unsystematic treatment of scattered topics which are related to topics discussed for reversible chains, but where reversibility plays no essential role. Section 1 treats constructions of stopping times with various optimality properties. Section 2 discusses random spanning trees associated with Markov chains, the probabilistic elaboration of \the matrix-tr...
