Empirical evidence of income dynamics across EU regions (2006, background): “Bulli (2001) explores in some detail the difficulties involved in choosing the appropriate discretisation for the income distribution, trying to find “optimal” ways to discretise the income space preserving the Markov property. Reichlin (1999) states that the long-run implications of the transition ”
Agricultural Productivity in the European Regions: Trends and Explanatory Factors (2007, methodology): “In fact, different methods may provide different results and even affect the Markov properties of the dynamic process (Bulli, 2001). To address this problem, Quah (1996a) suggests substituting the transition matrix with a stochastic kernel which reflects the probabilities of transition between a hyp”
