The extremes of a univariate Markov chain with regularly varying stationary marginal distribution and asymptotically linear behavior are known to exhibit a multiplicative random walk structure called the tail chain. In this paper we extend this fact to Markov chains with multivariate regularly varying marginal distributions in R

A rapidly mixing Markov chain from any gapped quantum many-body system [PDF]
We consider the computational task of sampling a bit string $x$ from a distribution $\pi(x)=|\langle x|\psi\rangle|^2$, where $\psi$ is the unique ground state of a local Hamiltonian $H$.

Putting Markov Chains Back into Markov Chain Monte Carlo [PDF]
Markov chain theory plays an important role in statistical inference both in the formulation of models for data and in the construction of efficient algorithms for inference. The use of Markov chains in modeling data has a long history, however the use of Markov chain theory in developing algorithms for statistical inference has only become popular ...

Metastable Markov chains [PDF]
In this paper, we discuss the dynamics of metastable systems. Such systems exhibit interesting long-living behaviors from which they are guaranteed to inevitably escape (e.g., eventually arriving at a distinct failure or success state). At the heart of this work, we emphasize (1) that for our goals, hybrid systems can be approximated as Markov Decision

Compositional Approximate Markov Chain Aggregation for PEPA Models [PDF]
Approximate Markov chain aggregation involves the construction of a smaller Markov chain that approximates the behaviour of a given chain. We discuss two different approaches to obtain a nearly optimal partition of the state-space, based on different ...

Modeling Investment Trends: A Logarithmic-Modified Markov Chain Approach
The study aimed at stabilizing the changing variance using the logarithmic transformation to achieve a significant proportion of stability and a faster rate of convergence of the steady state transition probability in Markov chains.

Let G be a finite group. Let $H, K$ be subgroups of G and $H \backslash G / K$ the double coset space. If Q is a probability on G which is constant on conjugacy classes ( $Q(s^{-1} t s) = Q(t)$ ), then the random walk driven by Q on G ...

Information-Geometric Markov Chain Monte Carlo Methods Using Diffusions [PDF]
Recent work incorporating geometric ideas in Markov chain Monte Carlo is reviewed in order to highlight these advances and their possible application in a range of domains beyond statistics. A full exposition of Markov chains and their use in Monte Carlo

Prediction of passenger movement indexes using Holt Winters Markov chain model [PDF]
In order to predict the values of passengers movement indexes which enjoy seasonal changes, this research uses Holt Winters Markov chain model, which is a combination of Markov chain and Holt Winters models.

The selection of a drill bit is an essential issue in well planning. Furthermore, identification and evaluation of sedimentary rocks before well drilling plays a crucial role in choosing the drill bit.
