Motivated by the notion of resistance distance on graph, we define a new resistance distance between two states on a given finite ergodic Markov chain based on its fundamental matrix. We prove a few equivalent formulations and discuss its relation with other parameters of the Markov chain such as its group inverse, stationary distribution, eigenvalues or hitting time. In addition, building upon existing sum rules for the hitting time of Markov chain, we give sum rules of this new resistance distance of Markov chains that resembles the sum rules of the resistance distance on graph. This yields Markov chain counterparts of various classical formulae such as Fosters first formula or the Kirchhoff index formulae.

Markov chain Monte Carlo(MCMC) is a popular approach to sample from high dimensional distributions, and the asymptotic variance is a commonly used criterion to evaluate the performance. While most popular MCMC algorithms are reversible, there is a gr
owing literature on the development and analyses of nonreversible MCMC. Chen and Hwang(2013) showed that a reversible MCMC can be improved by adding an antisymmetric perturbation. They also raised a conjecture that it can not be improved if there is no cycle in the corresponding graph. In this paper, we present a rigorous proof of this conjecture. The proof is based on the fact that the transition matrix with an acyclic structure will produce minimum commute time between vertices.
The resistance between two nodes in some resistor networks has been studied extensively by mathematicians and physicists. Let $L_n$ be a linear hexagonal chain with $n$, 6-cycles. Then identifying the opposite lateral edges of $L_n$ in ordered way yi
elds the linear hexagonal cylinder chain, written as $R_n$. We obtain explicit formulae for the resistance distance $r_{L_n}(i, j)$ (resp. $r_{R_n}(i,j)$) between any two vertices $i$ and $j$ of $L_n$ (resp. $R_n$). To the best of our knowledge ${L_n}_{n=1}^{infty}$ and ${R_n}_{n=1}^{infty}$ are two nontrivial families with diameter going to $infty$ for which all resistance distances have been explicitly calculated. We determine the maximum and the minimum resistance distances in $L_n$ (resp. $R_n$). The monotonicity and some asymptotic properties of resistance distances in $L_n$ and $R_n$ are given. As well we give formulae for the Kirchhoff indices of $L_n$ and $R_n$ respectively.
We consider the connections among `clumped residual allocation models (RAMs), a general class of stick-breaking processes including Dirichlet processes, and the occupation laws of certain discrete space time-inhomogeneous Markov chains related to sim
ulated annealing and other applications. An intermediate structure is introduced in a given RAM, where proportions between successive indices in a list are added or clumped together to form another RAM. In particular, when the initial RAM is a Griffiths-Engen-McCloskey (GEM) sequence and the indices are given by the random times that an auxiliary Markov chain jumps away from its current state, the joint law of the intermediate RAM and the locations visited in the sojourns is given in terms of a `disordered GEM sequence, and an induced Markov chain. Through this joint law, we identify a large class of `stick breaking processes as the limits of empirical occupation measures for associated time-inhomogeneous Markov chains.
RNA motifs typically consist of short, modular patterns that include base pairs formed within and between modules. Estimating the abundance of these patterns is of fundamental importance for assessing the statistical significance of matches in genome
wide searches, and for predicting whether a given function has evolved many times in different species or arose from a single common ancestor. In this manuscript, we review in an integrated and self-contained manner some basic concepts of automata theory, generating functions and transfer matrix methods that are relevant to pattern analysis in biological sequences. We formalize, in a general framework, the concept of Markov chain embedding to analyze patterns in random strings produced by a memoryless source. This conceptualization, together with the capability of automata to recognize complicated patterns, allows a systematic analysis of problems related to the occurrence and frequency of patterns in random strings. The applications we present focus on the concept of synchronization of automata, as well as automata used to search for a finite number of keywords (including sets of patterns generated according to base pairing rules) in a general text.
We present a Markov chain on the $n$-dimensional hypercube ${0,1}^n$ which satisfies $t_{{rm mix}}(epsilon) = n[1 + o(1)]$. This Markov chain alternates between random and deterministic moves and we prove that the chain has cut-off with a window of s
ize at most $O(n^{0.5+delta})$ where $delta>0$. The deterministic moves correspond to a linear shift register.
