Reversible Markov process

A stationary Markov process whose generator has elements given by

where π_j is the steady-state probability that the chain is in state j and q (j, k) is the rate at which the chain goes from state j to k. That is, the mean flow rates or probability flux satisfies detailed balance equations for every pair of nodes. Markov chains; Markov processes; Networks of queues; Queueing theory.
