Tunneling and Metastability of continuous time Markov chains

Johel Beltrán, Claudio Landim

Published 2009-10-21Version 1

We propose a new definition of metastability of Markov processes on countable state spaces. We obtain sufficient conditions for a sequence of processes to be metastable. In the reversible case these conditions are expressed in terms of the capacity and of the stationary measure of the metastable states.
