| Abstract: | The derivation of the expected time to coupling in a Markov chain and its relation to the expected time to mixing (as introduced by the author J.J. Hunter, Mixing times with applications to perturbed Markov chains, Linear Algebra Appl. 417 (2006) 108-123] are explored. The two-state cases and three-state cases are examined in detail. |
