Conversely, we prove that, if a conditioned process converges uniformly to a conservative Markov process which is itself ergodic, then it admits a unique quasi-stationary distribution and converges toward it exponentially fast, uniformly in its initial distribution. As an application, we provide a conditional ergodic theorem.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-11-08T11:00:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60J25", "37A25", "60B10" ], "keywords": [ "uniform convergence", "unique quasi-stationary distribution", "conditional ergodic theorem", "conservative markov process", "first aim" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
