    Probability of reaching state 1 before state 4 in a Markov chain

    Well the pair is a solution to that matrix vector multiplication. But I'm pretty sure the teacher made a mistake in putting the chance x on the second place of the vector, since the way u explained it it should be on the third place. This is because x is the chance leaving from state 3. I just...

    Probability of reaching state 1 before state 4 in a Markov chain

    I'm sorry but as I know sometimes replies are overlooked I'm sending another reply with the hope you will respond.

    Probability of reaching state 1 before state 4 in a Markov chain

    Yes I realized that. What about the solution? Doesn't it also contain a mistake? If x is the chance leaving from state 3 shouldn't it come in the third place of the vector instead of the second?

    Probability of reaching state 1 before state 4 in a Markov chain

    Thank you very much for taking your time and explaining this neatly and thoroughly. I'm sure this will be helpful to many others too as I haven't found an explanation of this particular problem trough Google.

    Probability of reaching state 1 before state 4 in a Markov chain

    If you could direct me to a place where this is explained I would be grateful. The material my teacher provided doesn't address this problem or atleast not directly, so I find it hard to understand this solution from the theory provided. I don't understand why P'f=f must be true. And I don't...

    Probability of reaching state 1 before state 4 in a Markov chain

    Hey could someone explain why this is true? I am trying to understand how to solve such a problem but I don't understand the solution. Problem: Given a Markov chain \left\{X_{n}: n\in\ \mathbb{N}\right\} with four states 1,2,3,4 and transition matrix P = \begin{pmatrix} 0 &...

    Prove that Sym(F) is a subgroup of O2(R)

    Homework Statement \textbf{26.} Let F \subset \textbf{R$^2$} be a non-empty subset of \textbf{R$^2$} that is bounded. Prove that after chosing appropriate coordinates Sym(F) is a subgroup of O_2(\textbf{R}). Homework Equations The hints given are: Prove there is an a \in \textbf{R$^2$}...

    Proof that S is a generating set.

    Ok thanks again for your help : ).

    Proof that S is a generating set.

    Ok so I know that H and xH must be disjoined sets (easy to proof), they have the same number of elements and both must be in G. But since the order of H is greater than half the order of G, H and xH unified would have more elements than G which is a contradiction. Therefore H must be the whole...

    Proof that S is a generating set.

    Homework Statement I have recently started a new course in Algebra. I have to proof that if S is a subset of a finite group G, with an order greater than half the order of G, S is a generating subset for G. Homework Equations I haven't had cosets nor Lagrange theorem so I suppose I should try...

    Proof that fn converges uniformly

    thank you, i solved it using that definition and by finding the maxima of fn by differentiation.

    Proof that fn converges uniformly

    Homework Statement \frac{x}{1+n^2*x^2} I must show if this converges uniformly or that it doesnt. So i must show that there is an N or that there isn't an N for which if n > N the inequality in the definition of uniform convergence holds for all x. Homework Equations...

    I have to proof that $\lim_{x \to \c} frac{1}{f(x) = 0$

    OK thank you. Yeah I know that in writing a proof one has to write a lot of little things to make it formally correct, I just wanted to know if I understand the method of proofing. Thanks again : )
