We propose a simple way to define a Hamiltonian for aperiodic Markov chains and to apply these chains in a thermodynamical context. The basic thermodynamic functions are correspondingly calculated. A quite intriguing and nontrivial application to stochastic automata is also pointed out.

Abstract
We propose a simple way to define a Hamiltonian for aperiodic Markov chains and to apply these chains in a thermodynamical context. The basic thermodynamic functions are correspondingly calculated. A quite intriguing and nontrivial application to stochastic automata is also pointed out.File in questo prodotto:
