On block skip free transition matrices:

Abstract: "Starting from an abstract setting which extends the property 'skip-free to the left' for transition matrices to a partition of the state space, we develop bounds for the mean hitting time to an arbitrary subset from an arbitrary initial law. We illustrate our theory with an...

Summary:Abstract: "Starting from an abstract setting which extends the property 'skip-free to the left' for transition matrices to a partition of the state space, we develop bounds for the mean hitting time to an arbitrary subset from an arbitrary initial law. We illustrate our theory with an asymptotic analysis of a non-reversible Markovian star network with loss."
