Conditions under which a function of a finite, discrete-time Markov chain, X(t), is again Markov are given, when X(t) is not irreducible. These conditions are given in terms of an interrelationship between two partitions of the state space of X(t), the partition induced by the minimal essential classes of X(t) and the partition with respect to which lumping is to be considered.

The connection between the age distribution of a discrete-time Markov chain and a certain time-reversed Markov chain is exhibited. A method for finding properties of age distributions follows simply from this approach. The results, which have application in several areas in applied probability, are illustrated by examples from population genetics.

We consider a discrete-time Markov chain observed through another Markov chain. The proposed model extends models discussed by Elliott et al. (1995). We propose improved recursive formulae to update smoothed estimates of processes related to the model. These recursive estimates are used to update the parameter of the model via the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm.
