Let $P$ be the transition probability matrix of a aperiodic irreducible DTMC and let $\pi$ be its stationary distribution. I would like to know if there is any literature on types of Markov chains that satisfy the following clause: > if $P_{ij} \ge P_{ji}$, then $\pi_i \le \pi_j$ for all $i,j$ I understand the time reversible chains are a special case of the above type, but in general what other properties can be said about these chains? Thanks in advance.
