Abstract:
We combine a result based on
Stein's method for normal approximations requiring
a coupling construction, with
a dynamic setup provided by a Markov structure
that suggests natural coupling variables.
Applications to the anti-voter model,
to various counts on random graphs and certain
statistical applications will be given.
(Joint work with V Rotar).
