A birth and death process with parameters λn = 0 for
all n ≥ 0 and µn = µ
for all n ≥ 1 is called a pure death process. Find Pij (t) for this
process.
The birth-death process is a special case of continuous time Markov process.
This is a birth-death process with λn = 0 and µn = µ. Thus, the Kolmogorov backward equations for Pij (t) is,

Question: Consider a Birth-Death process with birth rates {λn} and death rates {µn}, where µ0= 0. Let Ti: the time, starting from state i, it takes for the process to enter i+1 for the first time, i ≥ 0. Assume that it is allowed to go below i before reaching i+1. For i > 0, we have two scenarios: • i -→ i +1, • i -→ i -1 Denote the random variable 1i, to be the Indicator Function, such...

Let A be an n × n real symmetric matrix with its row and column sums both equal to 0. Let λ1, . . . , λn be the eigenvalues of A, with λn = 0, and with corresponding eigenvectors v1,...,vn (these exist because A is real symmetric). Note that vn = (1, . . . , 1). Let A[i] be the result of deleting the ith row and column. Prove that detA[i] = (λ1···λn-1)/n. Thus, the number of spanning...
