Characterisation of Markov property on planar maps
Pablo Araya, Luis Fredes, Avelio Sepúlveda
We revisit, in a self contained way, the Markov property on planar maps and decorated planar maps from three perspectives. First, we characterize the laws on these planar maps that…

Markov chains on trees: almost lower and upper directed cases
Luis Fredes, Jean-François Marckert
The transition matrix of a Markov chain on a finite or infinite rooted tree is said to be almost upper-directed if, given , the node is either a desc…
