Abstract: As an alternative to the splitting technique of Athreya–Ney and Nummelin, we propose a new method for the proof of ergodic theorems for Markov chains with arbitrary state space. Under our approach, the expansion of the original state space, which, in our opinion, is an ingenious but still artificial technique, can be avoided. © 2021 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.
