Monounireducible Nonhomogeneous Continuous Time Semi-Markov Processes Applied to Rating Migration Models

Monounireducible nonhomogeneous semi- Markov processes are defined and investigated. The mono- unireducible topological structure is a sufficient condition that guarantees the absorption of the semi-Markov process in a state of the process. This situation is of fundamental importance in the modellin...
