Abstract: Motivated by the theory of inhomogeneous Markov chains, we determine a sufficient condition for the convergence to 0 of a general product formed from a sequence of real or complex matrices. When the matrices have a common invariant subspace , we give a sufficient condition for the convergence to 0 on of a general product. Our result is applied to obtain a condition for the weak ergodicity of an inhomogeneous Markov chain. We compare various types of contractions which may be defined for a single matrix, such as paracontraction, --contraction, and --contraction, where is an invariant subspace of the matrix.
