weak-reversible Markov chains
The theory of L-spectral gaps for reversible Markov chains has been studied by many authors. In this paper we consider positive recurrent general state space Markov chains with stationary transition probabilities. Replacing the assumption of reversibility by a less strong one, we still obtain a simple necessary and sufficient condition for the spectral gap property of the associated Markov oper...
متن کاملConvergence Rates of Markov Chains
This is an expository paper which presents various ideas related to nonasymptotic rates of convergence for Markov chains. Such rates are of great importance for stochastic algorithms which are widely used in statistics and in computer science. They also have applications to analysis of card shuffling and other areas. In this paper, we attempt to describe various mathematical techniques which ha...

متن کاملConvergence for periodic Markov chains
Consider a discrete-time Markov chain (Xn : n > 0) ∼ Markov(λ, P ) with countable state space S. In the last lecture, we proved the following theorem for aperiodic Markov chains. Theorem (Aperiodic case). Assume P is irreducible and positive recurrent with unique invariant measure π. If, in addition, P is aperiodic, then P(Xn = j)→ πj as n→∞ for all j ∈ S. In particular, p (n) ij → πj as n→∞ fo...
