Exercise 5.3.15

Answers

Let v be that nonnegative vector and say d is the sum of all its entries. Thus we have x = 1 dv is a probability vector. Furthermore, if y is a probability vector in W. They must be parallel, say y = kx. The sum of entries of y is k by the fact that x is a probability vector. And the sum of entries of y is 1 since it itself is a probability vector. This means k = 1. So the vector is unique.
