Abstract
In this paper, we investigate duality and Feller–Reuter–Riley (FRR) property of continuous-time
Markov chains (CTMCs). A criterion of dual q-functions is given in terms of their q-matrices. For a
dual q-matrixQ, a necessary and sufficient conditions for the minimalQ-function to be a FRR transition
function are also given. Finally, by using dual technique, we give a criterion of FRR Q-functions
when Q is monotone.
