Abstract

Given an intertwining relation between two finite Markov chains, we investigate how it can be transformed by conditioning the primal Markov chain to stay in a proper subset. A natural assumption on the underlying link kernel is put forward. The three classical examples of discrete Pitman, top-to-random shuffle and absorbed birth-and-death chain intertwinings serve as illustrations.
