Question:

There are two boxes A and B, each containing red and green balls. Suppose that box A contains one red ball and two green balls and box B contains eight red balls and two green balls. Consider the following process: One ball is selected at random from box A, and one ball is selected at random from box B. The ball selected from box A is then placed in box B and the ball selected from box B is placed in box A. These operations are then repeated indefinitely. Show that the numbers of red balls in box A form a Markov chain with stationary transition probabilities, and construct the transition matrix of the Markov chain.
