Markov Chains Consider the Markov chain with transition matrix P = [ 0 1 1 0]. 1) Compute several powers of P by hand. What do you notice? 2) Argue that a Markov chain with P as its transition matrix cannot stabilize unless both initial probabilities are 1/2.
Consider the Markov chain whose transition probability matrix is given by Starting in state 1, determine the mean time that the process spends in state 1 prior to absorption and the mean time that the process spends in state 2 prior to absorption. Verify that the sum of these is the mean time to absorption.
