The asymptotic equipartition property for asymptotic circular markov chains

In this article, we study the asymptotic equipartition property (AEP) for asymptotic circular Markov chains. First, the definition of an asymptotic circular Markov chain is introduced. Then by applying the limit property for the bivariate functions of nonhomogeneous Markov chains, the strong limit theorem on the frequencies of occurrence of states for asymptotic circular Markov chains is established. Next, the strong law of large numbers on the frequencies of occurrence of states for asymptotic circular Markov chains is obtained. Finally, we prove the AEP for asymptotic circular Markov chains.
