In this paper we give a new set of verifiable conditions for the existence of average optimal stationary policies in discrete-time Markov decision processes with Borel spaces and unbounded reward/cost functions. More precisely, we provide another set of conditions, which only consists of a Lyapunov-type condition and the common continuity-compactness conditions. These conditions are imposed on the primitive data of the model of Markov decision processes and thus easy to verify. We also...
