Similar Markov Chains
In a recent paper, Lenin et al. [10] introduced the idea of similarity in the context of birth-death processes. The present note examines the extent to which their results can be extended to arbitrary Markov chains. We prove, under a variety of conditions, that similar chains are strongly similar in a sense which we shall describe, and we prove that minimal chains are strongly similar if and on...
متن کاملSelf-similar branching Markov chains
The main purpose of this work is to study self-similar branching Markov chains. First we will construct such a process. Then we will establish certain Limit Theorems using the theory of self-similar Markov processes.
متن کاملAny Two Irreducible Markov Chains Are Finitarily Orbit Equivalent
Two invertible dynamical systems (X,A, μ, T ) and (Y,B, ν, S) where X, Y are metrizable spaces and T , S are homeomorphisms on X and Y , are said to be finitarily orbit equivalent if there exists an invertible measure preserving mapping φ from a subset X0 of X of full measure to a subset Y0 of Y of full measure such that φ|X0 is continuous in the relative topology on X0, φ|Y0 is continuous in t...
متن کاملSelf-similar scaling limits of non-increasing Markov chains
We study scaling limits of non-increasing Markov chains with values in the set of non-negative integers, under the assumption that the large jump events are rare and happen at rates that behave like a negative power of the current state. We show that the chain starting from n and appropriately rescaled, converges in distribution, as n → ∞, to a non-increasing self-similar Markov process. This c...
متن کاملEmpirical Bayes Estimation in Nonstationary Markov chains
Estimation procedures for nonstationary Markov chains appear to be relatively sparse. This work introduces empirical Bayes estimators for the transition probability matrix of a finite nonstationary Markov chain. The data are assumed to be of a panel study type in which each data set consists of a sequence of observations on N>=2 independent and identically dis...
