15 Markov Chains: Limiting Probabilities

15 MARKOV CHAINS: LIMITING PROBABILITIES 170 This is an irreducible chain, with invariant distribution π0 = π1 = π2 = 1 3 (as it is very easy to check). Moreover P2 = 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 , P3 = I, P4 = P, etc. Although the chain does spend 1/3 of the time at each state, the transition

57.8%. Probabilities of survival can be calculated at any age by simply dividing the number of survivors at the terminal age by the number at the beginning age. For example, to calculate the probability of surviving from age 20 to age 85, one would divide the number of survivors at age 85 (42,382) by the number of
