Consequences of Monotonicity for Markov Transition Functions
Abstract
For an ergodic Markov chain we examine conditions for, and consequences of, monotonicity in time of a certain equation. The work has application to the study of asymptotic exponentiality of first passage time distributions, as well as the computation of separation distance. (kr)
