| Abstract | Abstract. Aiming at reduction of complexity, this work is concerned with two-time-scale Markov chains and applications to quasi-birth-death queues. Asymptotic expansions of probability vectors are constructed and justified. Lumping all states of the Markov chain in each subspace into a single state, an aggregated process is shown to converge to a continuous-time Markov chain whose generator is an average with respect to the stationary measures. Then a suitably scaled sequence is shown to converge to a switching diffusion process. Extensions of the results are presented together with examples of quasi-birth-death queues. Key words. Markov chain, singular perturbation, countable state space, asymptotic expansion, occupation measure, aggregation, switching diffusion, quasi-birth-death queue |
