Markov Property - Strong Markov Property

Strong Markov Property

Suppose that is a stochastic process on a probability space with natural filtration . Then is said to have the strong Markov property if, for each stopping time, conditioned on the event, the process (which maybe needs to be defined) is independent from and has the same distribution as for each .

The strong Markov property is a stronger property than the ordinary Markov property, since by taking the stopping time, the ordinary Markov property can be deduced.

    Manuel showed her his open hand: “Look at this finger, how meager it seems, and this one even weaker, and this other one no stronger, and this one all by himself and on his own.”
    Then he made a fist: “But now, is it strong enough, big enough, solid enough? It seems so doesn’t it?”
    Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)

    No man is by nature the property of another. The defendant is, therefore, by nature free.
