Pathological Birth-and-Death Processes and the Spectral Theory of Strings
I. S. Kats Odessa State Academy of Food Technology
Abstract:
In a 1957 paper, Karlin and McGregor discovered the existence of birth-and-death processes for which the Chapman–Kolmogorov equation does not hold. Such processes are said to be pathological. We disclose the probability nature of pathological birth-and-death processes with the help of M. Krein's spectral theory of strings.
Keywords:
birth-and-death process, string, spectral theory, generalized diffusion process.
