Question
Visiting a state infinitely often. Suppose that X0 = i and consider the
Ajk defined as the event that the chain visits state j at least k times. Note that if
Ajk occurs, then it must be true that the chain must have made a visit from i to j
and then revisited j at least k − 1 times. Realizing the Pi
visits state j from state i is fij and the Pi probability that the chain visits state j
from state j (k − 1) times is f k−1
jj , we conclude that Pi(Ajk) ≤ fij f k−1
jj . On the other
hand, if the chain happens to visit j from i and also revisit j at least k − 1 times,
then we would know that the event Ajk has occurred.
