    Combinatorial considerations on the invariant measure of a stochastic matrix
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2019) Stephan, Artur
    The invariant measure is a fundamental object in the theory of Markov processes. In finite dimensions a Markov process is defined by transition rates of the corresponding stochastic matrix. The Markov tree theorem provides an explicit representation of the invariant measure of a stochastic matrix. In this note, we given a simple and purely combinatorial proof of the Markov tree theorem. In the symmetric case of detailed balance, the statement and the proof simplifies even more.
