What is the purpose of the Markov equation?

66 Views Asked by At

I am trying to do a research project for school on markov chains and Diophantine equations. I need to cite the significance of the study and the only place I can find any connection between the 2 is the markov equation. I have spent hours trying to find the purpose of the markov equation with no success.
