In this work we define a stochastic adding machine associated to the Fibonacci base and to a probabilities sequence $\overline{p}=(p_i)_{i\geq 1}$. We obtain a Markov chain whose states are the set of nonnegative integers. We study…

In this paper, we define some Markov Chains associated to Vershik maps on Bratteli diagrams. We study probabilistic and spectral properties of their transition operators and we prove that the spectra of these operators are connected to…

A stochastic adding machine is a Markov chain on the set of non-negative integers $\mathbb{Z}_{+}$ that models the process of adding one by successively updating the digits of a number's expansion in a given numeration system. At each step,…

Spectral methods have proven to be a highly effective tool in understanding the intrinsic geometry of a high-dimensional data set $\left\{x_i \right\}_{i=1}^{n} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$. The key ingredient is the construction of a Markov chain…

Markov chains are a class of probabilistic models that have achieved widespread application in the quantitative sciences. This is in part due to their versatility, but is compounded by the ease with which they can be probed analytically.…

The recently established spectral Favard theorem for bounded banded matrices admitting a positive bidiagonal factorization is applied to a broader class of Markov chains with bounded banded transition matrices, extending beyond the…

We propose to study unitary matrix ensembles defined in terms of unitary stochastic transition matrices associated with Markov processes on graphs. We argue that the spectral statistics of such an ensemble (after ensemble averaging) depends…

We study the limiting object of a sequence of Markov chains analogous to the limits of graphs, hypergraphs, and other objects which have been studied. Following a suggestion of Aldous, we assign to a sequence of finite Markov chains with…

We introduce a statistical mechanics formalism for the study of constrained graph evolution as a Markovian stochastic process, in analogy with that available for spin systems, deriving its basic properties and highlighting the role of the…

We consider a simple discrete-time Markov chain with values in $[0,\infty)^{Z^d}$. The Markov chain describes various interesting examples such as oriented percolation, directed polymers in random environment, time discretizations of binary…

With the help of the representation of SL(2,Z) on the rank two free module over the integer adeles, we define the transition operator of a Markov chain. The real component of its spectrum exhibits a gap, whereas the non-real component forms…

We extend the Killeen-Taylor study in \cite{KT} by investigating in different Banach spaces ($\ell^\alpha(\N), c_0(\N),c_c(\N)$) the point, continuous and residual spectra of stochastic perturbations of the shift operator associated to the…

Switches are operations which make local changes to the edges of a graph, usually with the aim of preserving the vertex degrees. We study a restricted set of switches, called triangle switches. Each triangle switch creates or deletes at…

This article describes a method for computing limits of a class of non-stationary Markov chains motivated by healthcare sojourn-time cycles. A mathematical validation of the computation method is also given. Applications are described that…

We develop randomized modifications of Markov chains and apply these modifications to the routing chains of customers in Jacksonian stochastic networks. The aim of our investigations is to find new rerouting schemes for non standard Jackson…

Markov chains are fundamental models for stochastic dynamics, with applications in a wide range of areas such as population dynamics, queueing systems, reinforcement learning, and Monte Carlo methods. Estimating the transition matrix and…

We extend Hoeffding's lemma to general-state-space and not necessarily reversible Markov chains. Let $\{X_i\}_{i \ge 1}$ be a stationary Markov chain with invariant measure $\pi$ and absolute spectral gap $1-\lambda$, where $\lambda$ is…

Applying non-ergodic quadratic stochastic operator the continual family of weak ergodic non-homogeneous Markov chains is constructed.

Stochasticity is introduced to a well studied class of recursively grown graphs: $(u,v)$-flower nets, which have power-law degree distributions as well as small-world properties (when $u=1$). The stochastic variant interpolates between…

We take on a Random Matrix theory viewpoint to study the spectrum of certain reversible Markov chains in random environment. As the number of states tends to infinity, we consider the global behavior of the spectrum, and the local behavior…
