Abstract
Abstract. Simple yet practically efficient conditions for the ergodicity of a Markov chain on a general state space have recently been developed. We illustrate their application to non‐linear time series models and, in particular, to random coefficient autoregressive models.As well as ensuring the existence of a unique stationary distribution, geometric rates of convergence to stationarity are ensured. Moreover, sufficient conditions for the existence and convergence of moments can be determined by a closely related method. The latter conditions, in particular, are new.
