Spectral Radius and Spectral Norm for Markov Operators

My question concerns differences between the spectral radius $\rho$ and norm $\| \cdot \|$ of Markov operators in infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. This is far from my area of expertise, that is ...

Right spectral gap of vector of two independent Markov chains

Let $(X_i)$ be a stationary Markov chain on $S$ (a potentially uncountable space with a Borel sigma algebra) with stationary distribution $\pi$ and transition kernel $P$. Let $(Y_i)$ be a stationary ...

Perron-Frobenius and Markov chains on countable state space

The following question naturally arises in the theory of Markov chains with countable state space to which I would be curious to know the answer: Let $A:\ell^1 \rightarrow \ell^1$ be a contraction, i....

Spectral gap of a Markov chain on the nonnegative integers

Let $\lambda_k,\mu_k\in\mathbb R_{\ge0}$ $(k\ge1)$ be nonnegative real numbers such that $\sum_{k=1}^\infty k\lambda_k<\infty,$ let $S=\mathbb Z_{\ge0}$ be the nonnegative integers, let $T=\mathbb ...

Show convergence of a sequence of resolvent operators

Let $E$ be a locally compact separable metric space $(\mathcal D(A),A)$ be the generator of a strongly continuous contraction semigroup on $C_0(E)$ $E_n$ be a metric space for $n\in\mathbb N$ $(\...

Spectrum of a Markov kernel acting on $L^2$

Let $P$ be a Markov kernel on a measurable space $(E,\mathcal E)$ admitting an invariant probability measure $\pi$. $P$ acts on $L^2(\pi)$ via $$Pf:=\int\kappa(\;\cdot\;{\rm d}y)f(y).$$ The invariance ...
