Question:
Consider the Markov chain of Problem 16. Again assume X0 = 4. We would like to find the expected time (number of steps) until the chain gets absorbed in R1 or R2. More specifically, let T be the absorption time, i.e., the first time the chain visits a state in R1 or R2. We would like to find E[T|X0 = 4].
Problem 16
Consider the Markov chain in Figure 11.32. There are two recurrent classes, R1 = {1, 2}, and R2 = {5, 6, 7}. Assuming X0 = 4, find the probability that the chain gets absorbed to R1.
