Markov processes on the boundary of the binary tree

From MaRDI portal





[For the entire collection see Zbl 0754.00008.] The paper investigates a birth and death process on the nodes of the binary tree and its Ray-Knight compactification. Among other results, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for each point of the boundary (which is a Cantor set) to be regular, i.e. to be revisited ``almost immediately, and for the existence of a jointly continuous local time. Using time substitutions involving local time the author links the Markov chain with a Brownian diffusion on the graph with the edges adjoined, constructs the corresponding process living on the boundary and determines the jump rates of this boundary process.
