摘要
Let F-0 be the event that l(0) 0-runs of length k(0) occur and F-1 be the event that l(1) 1-runs of length k(1) occur in a two-state Markov chain. In this paper using a combinatorial method and the Markov chain imbedding method, we obtained explicit formulas of the probability generating functions of the sooner and later waiting time between F-0 and F-1 by the non-overlapping, overlapping and "greater than or equal" enumeration scheme. These formulas are convenient for evaluating the distributions of the sooner and later waiting time problems.
