In probability theory, the Lindley equation, Lindley recursion or Lindley process[1] is a discrete-time stochastic process An where n takes integer values and:
An + 1 = max(0, An + Bn).
Processes of this form can be used to describe the waiting time of customers in a queue or evolution of a queue length over time. The idea was first proposed in the discussion following Kendall's 1951 paper.[2][3]
