چکیده
In this paper, we deal with the fundamental concepts and properties of ergodicity coefficients in a hierarchical sense by making use of partition. Moreover, we establish a hierarchial Hajnal’s inequality improving some previous results.

On $L_1$-weak ergodicity of nonhomogeneous continuous-time Markov processes
In the present paper we investigate the $L_1$-weak ergodicity of nonhomogeneous continuous-time Markov processes with general state spaces. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for such processes to satisfy the $L_1$-weak ergodicity. Moreover, we apply the obtained results to establish $L_1$-weak ergodicity of quadratic stochastic processes.
متن کاملGeometric ergodicity of random scan Gibbs samplers for hierarchical one-way random effects models
We consider two Bayesian hierarchical one-way random effects models and establish geometric ergodicity of the corresponding random scan Gibbs samplers. Geometric ergodicity, along with a moment condition, guarantees a central limit theorem for sample means and quantiles. In addition, it ensures the consistency of various methods for estimating the variance in the asymptotic normal distribution....
متن کاملPenalized Regression, Standard Errors, and Bayesian Lassos
Penalized regression methods for simultaneous variable selection and coefficient estimation, especially those based on the lasso of Tibshirani (1996), have received a great deal of attention in recent years, mostly through frequentist models. Properties such as consistency have been studied, and are achieved by different lasso variations. Here we look at a fully Bayesian formulation of the prob...
متن کاملOn stability properties of positive contractions of L-spaces accosiated with finite von Neumann algebras
In the paper we extent the notion of Dobrushin coefficient of ergodicity for positive contractions defined on L-space associated with finite von Neumann algebra, and in terms of this coefficient we prove stability results for L-contractions.
متن کاملOccupancy distributions in Markov chains via Doeblin's ergodicity coefficient
We state and prove new properties about Doeblin’s ergodicity coefficient for finite Markov chains. We show that this coefficient satisfies a sub-multiplicative type inequality (analogous to the Markov-Dobrushin’s ergodicity coefficient), and provide a novel but elementary proof of Doeblin’s characterization of weak-ergodicity for non-homogeneous chains. Using Doeblin’s coefficient, we illustrat...
