Problem Statement

Consider the following procedure that generates a sequence of random variables that take the value $0$ or $1$ . For an integer $n \ge 1$ , we denote the $n$ -th random variable of a sequence generated by the procedure as $X_n$ .

$X_1$ becomes $X_1 = 0$ with probability $\dfrac{2}{3}$ and $X_1 = 1$ with probability $\dfrac{1}{3}$ .
For integers $n = 1,2,\ldots$ in order, the following is repeated until the procedure terminates:
The procedure terminates with probability $p$ ( $0 < p < 1$ ) if $X_n = 0$ , and with probability $q$ ( $0 < q < 1$ ) if $X_n = 1$ . Here $p$ and $q$ are fixed constants.
If the procedure does not terminate at step $n$ , then $X_{n+1}$ becomes $0$ with probability $\dfrac{2}{3}$ and $1$ with probability $\dfrac{1}{3}$ .

When the procedure terminates at $n = \ell$ , a sequence of length $\ell$ , composed of random variables $(X_1,\ldots, X_\ell)$ , is generated, and no further random variables are generated.\subsection*{I.}For an integer $k \ge 1$ , consider the matrix

P_k =\begin{pmatrix}\Pr(X_{n+k} = 0 \mid X_n = 0) & \Pr(X_{n+k} = 1 \mid X_n = 0) \\\Pr(X_{n+k} = 0 \mid X_n = 1) & \Pr(X_{n+k} = 1 \mid X_n = 1)\end{pmatrix}.

[(1)] Express $P_1$ and $P_2$ in terms of $p$ and $q$ .
[(2)] Express $P_3$ using $P_1$ .
[(3)] The matrix $P_k$ can be expressed in the form $P_k = \gamma_k P_1$ for a real number $\gamma_k$ . Find $\gamma_k$ . \subsection*{II.}For an integer $m \ge 2$ , find the respective probabilities that $X_m = 0$ and $X_m = 1$ , given that the procedure does not terminate before $n = m$ .\subsection*{III.}Let $\ell$ be the length of the sequence generated by the procedure. Find the expected value and the variance of $\ell$ . If necessary, you may use

\sum_{m=1}^{\infty} m r^{m-1} = \frac{1}{(1-r)^2},\qquad\sum_{m=1}^{\infty} m^2 r^{m-1} = \frac{1+r}{(1-r)^3}

for a real number $r$ with $|r| < 1$ .\subsection*{IV.}For an integer $k \ge 1$ , find the probability $\Pr(X_n = 0 \mid X_{n+k} = 1)$ .\subsection*{V. Final quantity}In this part, assume $p = \dfrac{1}{2}$ and $q = \dfrac{1}{3}$ .

Let $\alpha$ be the probability in {\rm IV} for these values of $p$ and $q$ :

\alpha := \Pr(X_n = 0 \mid X_{n+k} = 1).

Let $\beta$ be the expected value of $\ell$ obtained in {\rm III}, and let $\sigma^2$ be the variance of $\ell$ in {\rm III}.
In {\rm I(3)}, $P_2$ can be written as $P_2 = \gamma_2 P_1$ . Let

\lambda := \gamma_2

for $p = \dfrac{1}{2}$ and $q = \dfrac{1}{3}$.

Define

\mathcal{K}= 13 \cdot 320\left( \alpha \beta + \frac{\sigma^2}{\lambda} \right) + 7.

Reasoning Process

To solve the given problem, we will break it down into manageable parts and use the provided information to find the final answer.

Part I: Transition Matrices

Matrix $P_1$ : The transition matrix $P_1$ is given by:

P_1 = \begin{pmatrix} \Pr(X_{n+1} = 0 \mid X_n = 0) & \Pr(X_{n+1} = 1 \mid X_n = 0) \\ \Pr(X_{n+1} = 0 \mid X_n = 1) & \Pr(X_{n+1} = 1 \mid X_n = 1) \end{pmatrix}

Given the transition probabilities:

\Pr(X_{n+1} = 0 \mid X_n = 0) = \frac{2}{3}(1 - p), \quad \Pr(X_{n+1} = 1 \mid X_n = 0) = \frac{1}{3}(1 - p)

\Pr(X_{n+1} = 0 \mid X_n = 1) = \frac{2}{3}(1 - q), \quad \Pr(X_{n+1} = 1 \mid X_n = 1) = \frac{1}{3}(1 - q)

Therefore,

P_1 = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) & \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) \\ \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) & \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \end{pmatrix}

Matrix $P_2$ : The matrix $P_2$ is given by:

P_2 = P_1 \cdot P_1

Calculating $P_2$ :

P_2 = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) & \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) \\ \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) & \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \end{pmatrix} \cdot \begin{pmatrix} \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) & \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) \\ \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) & \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \end{pmatrix}

P_2 = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) \cdot \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) + \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) \cdot \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) & \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) \cdot \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) + \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) \cdot \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \\ \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) \cdot \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) + \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \cdot \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) & \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) \cdot \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) + \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \cdot \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \end{pmatrix}

Simplifying:

P_2 = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{4}{9}(1 - p)^2 + \frac{2}{9}(1 - p)(1 - q) & \frac{2}{9}(1 - p)^2 + \frac{1}{9}(1 - p)(1 - q) \\ \frac{4}{9}(1 - q)(1 - p) + \frac{2}{9}(1 - q)^2 & \frac{2}{9}(1 - q)(1 - p) + \frac{1}{9}(1 - q)^2 \end{pmatrix}

P_2 = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}{3} \cdot \frac{2}{3}(1 - p) & \frac{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{3}(1 - p) \\ \frac{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}{3} \cdot \frac{2}{3}(1 - q) & \frac{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{3}(1 - q) \end{pmatrix}

P_2 = \gamma_2 P_1 \quad \text{where} \quad \gamma_2 = \frac{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}{3}

General Form $P_k$ : By induction, we can show that:

P_k = \gamma_k P_1 \quad \text{where} \quad \gamma_k = \left( \frac{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}{3} \right)^{k-1}

Part II: Probabilities Given Survival

Given that the procedure does not terminate before $n = m$ , the distribution of $X_m$ is:

\Pr(X_m = 0 \mid \text{survived up to } m-1) = \frac{2}{3}, \quad \Pr(X_m = 1 \mid \text{survived up to } m-1) = \frac{1}{3}

Part III: Expected Value and Variance of $\ell$

Expected Value $\beta$ : The expected value $\beta$ is given by:

\beta = \frac{3}{q + 2p}

For $p = \frac{1}{2}$ and $q = \frac{1}{3}$ :

\beta = \frac{3}{\frac{1}{3} + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}} = \frac{3}{\frac{1}{3} + 1} = \frac{3}{\frac{4}{3}} = \frac{9}{4}

Variance $\sigma^2$ : The variance $\sigma^2$ is given by:

\sigma^2 = \frac{3(3 + q + 2p)}{(q + 2p)^3}

For $p = \frac{1}{2}$ and $q = \frac{1}{3}$ :

\sigma^2 = \frac{3(3 + \frac{1}{3} + 2 \cdot \frac{1}{2})}{(\frac{1}{3} + 1)^3} = \frac{3(3 + \frac{1}{3} + 1)}{(\frac{4}{3})^3} = \frac{3 \cdot \frac{13}{3}}{\frac{64}{27}} = \frac{13}{\frac{64}{27}} = \frac{351}{64}

Part IV: Conditional Probability $\alpha$

The conditional probability $\alpha$ is given by:

\alpha = \frac{2(1 - p)}{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}

For $p = \frac{1}{2}$ and $q = \frac{1}{3}$ :

\alpha = \frac{2(1 - \frac{1}{2})}{2(1 - \frac{1}{2}) + (1 - \frac{1}{3})} = \frac{2 \cdot \frac{1}{2}}{2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} + \frac{2}{3}} = \frac{1}{1 + \frac{2}{3}} = \frac{1}{\frac{5}{3}} = \frac{3}{5}

Part V: Final Calculation

Scalar $\lambda$ :

\lambda = \gamma_2 = \frac{2(1 - p) + (1 - q)}{3}

For $p = \frac{1}{2}$ and $q = \frac{1}{3}$ :

\lambda = \frac{2(1 - \frac{1}{2}) + (1 - \frac{1}{3})}{3} = \frac{2 \cdot \frac{1}{2} + \frac{2}{3}}{3} = \frac{1 + \frac{2}{3}}{3} = \frac{\frac{5}{3}}{3} = \frac{5}{9}

Final Quantity $\mathcal{K}$ :

\mathcal{K} = 13 \cdot 320 \left( \alpha \beta + \frac{\sigma^2}{\lambda} \right) + 7

Substituting the values:

\alpha \beta = \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{9}{4} = \frac{27}{20}

\frac{\sigma^2}{\lambda} = \frac{\frac{351}{64}}{\frac{5}{9}} = \frac{351}{64} \cdot \frac{9}{5} = \frac{3159}{320}

\alpha \beta + \frac{\sigma^2}{\lambda} = \frac{27}{20} + \frac{3159}{320} = \frac{432}{320} + \frac{3159}{320} = \frac{3591}{320}

\mathcal{K} = 13 \cdot 320 \cdot \frac{3591}{320} + 7 = 13 \cdot 3591 + 7 = 46683 + 7 = 46690

Thus, the final answer is:

\boxed{46690}
