Abstract/Summary

This paper presents different methods for computing the k-transition probability matrix pk for small values of k as well as large values of k. Graph theoretic concepts are used in Markov chains to compute for the values of the k-step transition probability matrix. An application of the study is conducted to give a better insight and understanding of the concepts of Graph Theory as well as those of Markov Chains, thereby showing the relationship between the two subject areas.
