Attend the eighteenth lecture of a graduate-level course on Markov Chains, delivered in Portuguese by Professor Milton Jara at the Instituto de Matemática Pura e Aplicada (IMPA) during the 2025 Summer School. Learn fundamental concepts of Markov Chains based on the book "Markov Chains and Mixing Times" by Levin, Peres, and Wilmer. Gain insights into both basic theory and recent research applications, with prerequisites including elementary probability concepts (equivalent to Chapter 1 of Barry James' "Probability: An Intermediate Level Course") and helpful but not mandatory knowledge of linear and elementary algebra. Access additional course materials and related content through IMPA's social media channels, with the understanding that all content is protected by copyright and requires written authorization for use beyond standard educational purposes.
