Column stochastic matrix/Positive row/One-dimensional eigenspace/Fact
Appearance
Let be a column stochastic matrix. Then the following statements hold.
- There exists eigenvectors to the eigenvalue .
- If there exists a row such that all its entries are positive, then for every vector
that has a positive and also a negative entry, the estimate
holds.
- If there exists a row such that all its entries are positive, then the eigenspace of the eigenvalue is one-dimensional. There exists an eigenvector where all entries are no-negative; in particular, there is a uniquely determined stationary distribution.
