Abstract
We address the problem of Lyapunov function construction for a class of continuous-time Markov chains with affine transition rates, typically encountered in stochastic chemical kinetics. Following an optimization approach, we take advantage of existing bounds from the Foster-Lyapunov stability theory to obtain functions that enable us to estimate the region of high stationary probability, as well as provide upper bounds on moments of the chain. Our method can be used to study the stationary behavior of a given chain without resorting to stochastic simulation, in a fast and efficient manner.
