A representation result for finite Markov chains

Peter Spreij

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1998, vol. 38, issue 2, 183-186

Abstract: In this short paper we derive a representation result in terms of a solution to a stochastic differential equation that is valid for both continuous and discrete time Markov processes that live on a finite state space. Martingale techniques are used throughout the paper.
