Unable to understand this expression

I am unable to understand the above expression from the 3rd line onwards. Why is P(A|q1...qt-1)P(q1..q-1) = P(A|qt-1)P(q1..q-1)



I am not clear of the subsequent line as well

  • I think the third line is a typo. I think it shoulbe $P(A|q_{t-1})P(q_1, ... , q_{t-2}) = P(A|q_{t-1})P(q_{t-1}|q_{t-2})P(q_1,....,q_{t-e}) = ..... P(A|q_{t-1})P(q_{t-1}|q_{t-2})....P(q_2|q_1)P(q_1)$.

This follows from the Markov property (or the memoryless property) that the conditional probability of a future event only depends on the current state.



See link for more information about this property.
