Metastable distributions of Markov chains with rare transitions

Abstract

In this paper we consider Markov chains with transition rates that depend on a small parameter . Under a mild assumption on the asymptotics of these transition rates, we describe the behavior of the chain at various -dependent time scales, i.e., we calculate the metastable distributions.
