Abstract: In 2012 Lau and Ngai, motivated by the work of Denker and Sato, gave an example of an isotropic Markov chain on the set of finite words over a three letter alphabet, whose Martin boundary is homeomorphic to the Sierpi'nski gasket. Here, we extend the results of Lau and Ngai to a class of non-isotropic Markov chains. We determine the Martin boundary and show that the minimal Martin boundary is a proper subset of the Martin boundary. In addition, we give a description of the set of harmonic functions.
