"""
Markov-based mobility index.
Parameters
----------
p : array
(k, k), Markov transition probability matrix.
measure : string
If measure= "P",
:math:`M_{P} = \\frac{m-\sum_{i=1}^m P_{ii}}{m-1}`;
if measure = "D",
:math:`M_{D} = 1 - |\det(P)|`,
where :math:`\det(P)` is the determinant of :math:`P`;
if measure = "L2",
:math:`M_{L2} = 1 - |\lambda_2|`,
where :math:`\lambda_2` is the second largest eigenvalue of
:math:`P`;
if measure = "B1",
:math:`M_{B1} = \\frac{m-m \sum_{i=1}^m \pi_i P_{ii}}{m-1}`,
where :math:`\pi` is the initial income distribution;
if measure == "B2",
:math:`M_{B2} = \\frac{1}{m-1} \sum_{i=1}^m \sum_{
j=1}^m \pi_i P_{ij} |i-j|`,
where :math:`\pi` is the initial income distribution.
ini : array
(k,), initial distribution. Need to be specified if
measure = "B1" or "B2". If not,
the initial distribution would be treated as a uniform
distribution.
Returns
-------
mobi : float
Mobility value.
Notes
-----
The mobility indices are based on :cite:`Formby:2004fk`.
