Let $X_1, X_2, dots$ be independent random variables such that $PX_i = j = alpha_j, j geq 0$. Say that a record occurs at time $n$ if $X_n > max(X_1, dots, X_n-1)$, where $X_0 = -infty$, and if a record does occur at time $n$ call $X_n$ the record value. Let $R_i$ denote the ith record value.

(a) Argue that $R_i, i geq 1$ is a Markov chain and compute its transition probabilities.

(b) Let $T_i$ denote the time between the ith and $(i + 1)$st record. Is $T_i, i geq 1$ a Markov chain? What about $(R_i, T_i), i geq 1$? Compute transition probabilities where appropriate.

(c) Let $S_n = sum_i=1^n T_i, n geq 1$. Argue that $S_n, n geq 1$ is a Markov chain and find its transition probabilities.

The Problem was from Chapter 4 of "Stochastic Processes" by M. Ross, I've solved the first question, which is $
P_ij = left{
beginarrayll
0 quad i geq j \
alpha_j/sum_k=i+1^infty alpha_k quad i < j \
endarray
right. $

I think the $T_i$ are independent from each other(thus a trivial Markov chain), whose transition probability is its probability. But I don't know how solve the last two question exactly. Thx for help.
