Consider a Markov chain with state space S = {0, 1, 2, 3} and transition probability matrix
P=
(a) Starting from state 1, determine the mean time that the process spends in each transient state 1 and 2, separately, prior to absorption.
(b) Determine the mean time to absorption starting from state 1.
(c) Starting from state 1, determine the probability for the process to be absorbed in state 0. Which state is it then more likely for the process to be absorbed in (starting from state 1)?

Consider the Markov chain whose transition probability matrix is given by
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.
