Abstract

Based on the spatial correlation and Markov test and the panel data of 31 provinces in China from 2010 to 2016, this paper has constructed traditional and spatial Markov transition probability matrices and analyzed the spatio-temporal evolution of the development level of interprovincial service industry in China. The results show that there is a non-equilibrium problem in the development of the inter-provincial service industry in China, accompanied by a certain phenomenon of backward development.
