Write down the most general transition matrix for a two state Markov chain (i.e. a random process that is Markov and homogenous). Prove that every such chain has an equilibrium vector. Classify the chains into those that are regular, absorbing and irreducible. Describe the general aysmptotic behavior in time of the chain when started from an arbitrary probability mass vector.
