• We note that X(n) = X(n−1)P therefore if
lim X(n) = π
n→∞
then
π = lim X(n) = lim X(n−1)P = πP.
n→∞
n→∞
We have the following definition
Definition 16. A row vector
π = (π0, π1, . . . , πk−1)
is said to be a stationary distribution of a finite Markov chain if it satisfies:
(i)
k−1
∑
π i ≥ 0 and
π i = 1.
i=0
(ii)
πP = π,
i.e.
k−1
∑
i=0

π iPij = π j .
