Journal of Applied Probability, Vol. 41, Stochastic Methods and Their Applications (2004), pp. 347-360 (14 pages) This paper investigates the probabilistic behaviour of the eigenvalue of the empirical ...

Let A be a stochastic matrix and ε a positive number. We consider all stochastic matrices within ε of A and their corresponding stochastic eigenvectors. A convex polytope containing these vectors is ...

A Markov chain is a sequence of random variables that satisfies P(X t+1 ∣X t ,X t−1 ,…,X 1 )=P(X t+1 ∣X t ). Simply put, it is a sequence in which X t+1 depends only on X t and appears before X t−1 ...
