摘要：
Many of the well known classification theorems of irreducible Markov chains X placing them into transient or recurrent classes are proved by assuming that X is reversible. It is shown here that the 'reversible' condition in X can be removed if potential-theoretic methods are used. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Italia.
