Finite-State-Space Truncations for Infinite Quasi-Birth-Death Processes

For dealing numerically with the infinite-state-space Markov chains, a truncation of the state space is inevitable, that is, an approximation by a finite-state-space Markov chain has to be performed. In this paper, we consider level-dependent quasi-birth-death processes, and we focus on the computat...
