The switch process alternates independently between 1 and -1, with the first switch to 1 occurring at the origin. The expected value function of this process is defined uniquely by the distribution of switching times. The relation between the two is implicitly described through the Laplace transform, which is difficult to use for determining if a given function is the expected value function of some switch process. We derive an explicit relation under the assumption of monotonicity of the expected value function. It is shown that geometric divisible switching time distributions correspond to a non-negative decreasing expected value function. Moreover, an explicit relation between the switching time distribution and the autocovariance function of the switch process stationary counterpart is obtained, which allows parallel results for the stationary switch process and its covariance function. These results are applicable to approximation methods in statistical physics, and an example is presented.
