Abstract

We discuss the generalization of the classical Gittins Index for a Markov chain and propose a transparent recursive algorithm for its calculation. The foundation for this algorithm is a modified version of the Elimination algorithm proposed earlier by the author to solve the problem of optimal stopping of a Markov chain in discrete time and a finite or countable state space.
