Tuki <kalebrave@gmail.com>: You need to give full refs to those papers if you want good help. I guess you estimated a non-ergodic transition matrix, and you want the nearest ergodic matrix in some metric? Are you sure you don't want a regular transition matrix, to ensure convergence to a unique steady state? You may want to write out a maximum likelihood estimator that constrains eigenvalues.
