In this paper we propose a new approach for estimating the transition probabilities and mean occupation times of continuous-time Markov chains. Our approach is to approximate the probability of being in a state (or the mean time already spent in a state) at time t by the probability of being in that state (or the mean time already spent in that state) at a random time that is gamma distributed with mean t.

We investigate random-time state-dependent Foster-Lyapunov analysis on subgeometric rate ergodicity of continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs). We are mainly concerned with making use of the available results on deterministic state-dependent drift conditions for CTMCs and on random-time state-dependent drift conditions for discrete-time Markov chains and transferring them to CTMCs.

We consider random time changes in Markov processes with killing potentials. We study how random time changes may be introduced in these Markov processes with killing potential and how these changes may influence their time behavior. As applications, we study the parabolic Anderson problem, the non-local Schrödinger operators as well as the generalized Anderson problem.
