Abstract

While all discrete parameter Markov processes on a Polish state space can be represented as i.i.d. iterations of random maps, the properties of the maps obviously play a significant role in their long-run behavior. Non-decreasing monotonicity is one such property for which definitive results can be obtained, as illustrated in this chapter.
