On Automorphisms of Markov Chains

We prove several theorems about automorphisms of Markov chains, using the weight-per-symbol polytope. Introduction The main purpose of this paper is to show how the weight-per-symbol polytope (WPS), introduced in [MT1, §3] can be used in the study of automorphisms (i.e., measure-preserving conjugacies) of Markov chains, in particular, with regard to the question of which permutations of finitel...
