Suppose that we have a finite
irreducible Markov chain Xn with stationary distribution π on a
state space S. (a) Consider the sequence of neighboring pairs, (X0,
X1), (X1, X2), (X2, X3), . . . . Show that this is also a Markov
chain and find the transition probabilities. (The state space will
be S ×S = {(i,j) : i,j ∈ S} and the jumps are now of the form (i,
j) → (k, l).) (b) Find the stationary distribution...
