Fluid approximations have seen great success in approximating the macro-scale behaviour of Markov systems with a large number of discrete states. However, these methods rely on the continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC) having a particular population structure which suggests a natural continuous state-space endowed with a dynamics for the approximating process. We construct here a general method based on spectral analysis of the transition matrix of the CTMC, without the need for a population struc ...[more]
