CLTs and asymptotic variance of time-sampled Markov chains [PDF]
For a Markov transition kernel P and a probability distribution μ on nonnegative integers, a time-sampled Markov chain evolves according to the transition kernel Pμ = Σkμ(k)Pk.

Generative Flow Networks: a Markov Chain Perspective
While Markov chain Monte Carlo methods (MCMC) provide a general framework to sample from a probability distribution defined up to normalization, they often suffer from slow convergence to the target distribution when the latter is highly multi-modal.

A Complete Quantitative Deduction System for the Bisimilarity Distance on Markov Chains [PDF]
In this paper we propose a complete axiomatization of the bisimilarity distance of Desharnais et al. for the class of finite labelled Markov chains.

Small sets and Markov transition densities [PDF]
The theory of general state-space Markov chains can be strongly related to the case of discrete state-space by use of the notion of small sets and associated minorization conditions. The general theory shows that small sets exist for all Markov chains on

An estimate for an expectation of the simultaneous renewal for time-inhomogeneous Markov chains
In this paper, we consider two time-inhomogeneous Markov chains ${X_{t}^{(l)}}$, $l\in \{1,2\}$, with discrete time on a general state space. We assume the existence of some renewal set C and investigate the time of simultaneous renewal, that is, the ...

Generalized crested products of Markov chains
We define a finite Markov chain, called generalized crested product, which naturally appears as a generalization of the first crested product of Markov chains. A complete spectral analysis is developed and the $k$-step transition probability is given.

Correction : perfect simulation for a class of positive recurrent Markov chains [PDF]
In [1] we introduced a class of positive recurrent Markov chains, named tame chains. A perfect simulation algorithm, based on the method of dominated CFTP, was then shown to exist in principle for such chains. The construction of a suitable dominating

Subgeometric Ergodicity under Random-Time State-Dependent Drift Conditions
Motivated by possible applications of Lyapunov techniques in the stability of stochastic networks, subgeometric ergodicity of Markov chains is investigated.

Applications of Metric Coinduction [PDF]
Metric coinduction is a form of coinduction that can be used to establish properties of objects constructed as a limit of finite approximations. One can prove a coinduction step showing that some property is preserved by one step of the approximation ...
