For data generated by stationary Markov chains there are considered estimates of chain parameters minimizing φ –divergences between theoretical and empirical distributions of states. Consistency and asymptotic normality are established and the asymptotic covariance matrices are evaluated. Testing of hypotheses about the stationary distributions based on φ –divergences between the estimated and empirical distributions is considered as well. Asymptotic distributions of φ –divergence test...
