Abstract
We give some new kinds of variational formulas for the first hitting time of non-reversible Markov chain on countable state space. Some comparison theorems are obtained for the non-reversible Markov chain and its corresponding reversible one. As an application, we prove a stronger version of a conjecture in [1, Chapter 9, Conjecture 22].
