Hitting Times and Probabilities for Imprecise Markov Chains
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
Preserved Fulltext
Other Versions
Our first contribution is that all these different types of imprecise Markov chains have the same lower and upper expected hitting times, and similarly the hitting probabilities are the same for these ...
We consider the problem of characterising expected hitting times and hitting probabilities for imprecise Markov chains. ...
We are very grateful to three anonymous reviewers for their helpful suggestions and constructive comments. ...

We obtain a sharp asymptotic estimate for the expected transition time, show that the transition time is asymptotically exponentially distributed, and identify the size and shape of the critical droplet ...
For various types of bipartite graphs the computations are made explicit. Proofs rely on potential theory for reversible Markov chains, and on isoperimetric results. ...
Therefore, we get a similar lower bound for the expected crossover time using Proposition 3.2. Proposition 8.4 (Lower bound for expected crossover time: Widom-Rowlinson). ...

In interacting galaxies, strong tidal forces disturb the global morphology of the progenitors and give birth to the long stellar, gaseous and dusty tails often observed. ...
Furthermore, characteristic time- and energy scales of these modes match well those of self-gravitating substructures such as star clusters and tidal dwarf galaxies. ...
This can be interpreted by considering the birth and death rates of the clusters. ...
