    Abstract

    We provide nonergodicity criteria for denumerable continuous time Markov processes in terms of test functions that satisfy Kaplan's condition, which resolves an open problem given by [B.D. Choi, B. Kim, nonergodicity criteria for denumerable continuous time Markov processes, and Operations Research Letters 32 (2004) 575-580]. We give two examples where the nonergodicity criteria are used.
