On a Result for Finite Markov Chains
Kulathinal, Sangita; Ghosh, Lagnojita
International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science & Technology, v37 n4 p498-502 Jun 2006
In an undergraduate course on stochastic processes, Markov chains are discussed in great detail. Textbooks on stochastic processes provide interesting properties of finite Markov chains. This note discusses one such property regarding the number of steps in which a state is reachable or accessible from another state in a finite Markov chain with M ([greater than or equal to]2) states.
