Abstract In this paper, we first study the strong law of large
numbers for the frequencies of occurrence of random ordered couples of states
for nonhomogeneous bifurcating Markov chains indexed by a binary tree. Then
the strong law of large numbers are studied for functions of the nonhomogeneous
bifurcating Markov chains indexed by a binary tree. As a corollary, we obtain
the shannon-McMillan theorem for these Markov chains with finite state space.
