I have a markov process with a transition matrix. However, I'm studying certain the affect of removing certain transitions from the process. My emphasis is on the transitions that are removed or prohibited. I'd like a terminology that reflects this emphasis. I'd like to have a term to describe a matrix that prohibits certain selected transitions. Some possibilities would be "prohibited transitions matrix", but that has a clunky sound. do you have a suggestion?

I would suspect that there doesn't exist a widely used term for this, since, at the core of the operation, you're just changing the chain(s). – scoopfaze Jun 13 '20 at 03:49

HI scoopfaze, for the purpose of writing my paper, I have decided to call it a rejection rule. The meaning is that some selected transitions are "rejected". Does that sound reasonable to you? I decided not to go with "exclusion" rule, because it could be confused with the Pauli Exclusion principle, which states that a particle can't transition into a state that is allready occupied with a particle of the same spin. So that is different than the concept I'm trying to describe. – Chris Jun 13 '20 at 16:57

You can call it whatever you’d like. I was just trying to explain why I don’t think you’ll find an established name for it. – scoopfaze Jun 13 '20 at 17:00

I found a term, "transition exclusion matrix" or "exclusion matrix". However, I dont' really like that term.
