"这篇文章主要探讨了离散时间马尔科夫链的稳定性，包括拓扑稳定性和概率稳定性之间的关系，并提出了适用于广泛链类别的统一稳定性标准。通过动态规划公式的形式化表述，建立了第一进入时间的矩估计，从而扩展了Lyapunov-Foster准则，用于证明各种稳定性条件。即使在非不可约的情况下，这些结果也保证了遍历定理的有效性，为确定收敛速率提供了一种更普遍的测试函数方法。" 离散时间马尔科夫链（Discrete-Time Markov Chain, DTMC）是统计和概率论中的一个基本概念，用于描述系统状态随时间变化的随机过程，其中下一个状态只依赖于当前状态而与过去的历史无关。在【标题】"Stability of Markovian processes I_ Criteria for discrete-time chains"中，"Stability"指的是DTMC的稳定性，这是研究马尔科夫过程长期行为的重要方面。【描述】提到了几个关键的稳定性形式，包括紧性（Tightness）、哈里斯回转（Harris Recurrence）和遍历性（Ergodicity）。紧性是拓扑学的概念，对于概率分布序列来说，意味着它们会集中在一个相对有限的区域。哈里斯回转是马尔科夫链理论中的一个重要概念，表示链以非零概率无限次返回任意非空开集。遍历性则是马尔科夫链具有统计稳定性的标志，它保证了链在足够长时间后平均行为的唯一性。【标签】"Markovian"指明了讨论的主题是马尔科夫性质的随机过程。在这个过程中，马尔科夫性质意味着未来的状态概率分布仅依赖于当前状态，而与过去的历史无关。文章【部分内容】中提到，作者通过离散形式的 Dynkin 公式来建立统一的稳定性标准。Dynkin 公式是概率论中的一个工具，用于计算随机过程在特定时间达到或离开某个集合的概率。通过对进入“小集合”（Petite Set）的第一步时间的矩估计，他们扩展了Lyapunov-Foster准则。Lyapunov函数是证明马尔科夫链稳定性的一个常用工具，它可以用来刻画系统的负指数增长趋势。这些结果不仅适用于具有连续状态空间的马尔科夫链，而且在状态空间具有适当丰富的小集合时，各种稳定性的概念是等价的。此外，即使在链不一定是不可约（Irreducible）的情况下，这些稳定性条件也能保证遍历定理的适用性，即在足够长的时间尺度上，马尔科夫链的平均行为可以被描述为某个平稳分布。最后，这些研究还为确定马尔科夫链的收敛速率提供了一种更通用的方法，允许使用更广泛的测试函数来分析链的动态。这对于理解和预测复杂系统的行为，尤其是在系统建模、控制理论和数据分析等领域具有重要意义。

Stability of

The

p-bounded

The

of this

are

well known

(see

[5]).

The nomenclature

of boundedness in

probability

is derived from

(see [22]

for a detailed

discussion).

The

concepts

appear

relatively

in discrete-time Markov chain

theory,

although

[16]

uses

the idea of

non-evanescence

and

actually

calls it

recurrence.

These

conditions,

the

continuous-time

context,

have also been called

'recurrence'

conditions:

see,

for

example, [14].

It is

this

sort

plurality

nomenclature that had led

us to

adopt

the term

'stability'

the

various

concepts:

as a

justification

note

that non-evanescence

is related to the

concept

Lagrange-stability

dynamical

literature

[4],

whilst a

Markov

chain

We show

in the

section

that

non-evanescence can be

connected with

Harris recurrence

under suitable

conditions.

Clearly,

though,

since the

stochastic

conditions

irreducibility,

they

are not in

('T-chains')

the

that,

then these

We also indicate conditions
