Small-scale properties of a stochastic cubic-autocatalytic reaction-diffusion model.
We investigate the small-scale properties of a stochastic cubic-autocatalytic reaction-diffusion (CARD) model using renormalization techniques. We renormalize noise-induced ultraviolet divergences and obtain β functions for the decay rate and coupling at one loop. Assuming colored (power-law) noise, our results show that the behavior of both decay rate and coupling with scale depends crucially ...
متن کاملDynamics of autocatalytic reaction networks. IV: Inhomogeneous replicator networks.
The inhomogeneous replicator equation is derived as the continuous time model for parallel first and second order autocatalytic replication of macromolecules in a flow reactor based on mass action kinetics. It is shown that the total concentration of replicating material determines the relative importance of the first order and the second order mechanism. A complete description of the dynamics ...
متن کاملA stochastic model of the emergence of autocatalytic cycles
Autocatalytic cycles are rather common in biological systems and they might have played a major role in the transition from non-living to living systems. Several theoretical models have been proposed to address the experimentalists during the investigation of this issue and most of them describe a phase transition depending upon the level of heterogeneity of the chemical soup. Nevertheless, it ...
متن کاملA special Class of Stochastic PERT Networks
Considering the network structure is one of the new approaches in studying stochastic PERT networks (SPN). In this paper, planar networks are studied as a special class of networks. Two structural reducible mechanisms titled arc contraction and deletion are developed to convert any planar network to a series-parallel network structure.
In series-parallel SPN, the completion time distribution...
متن کاملThe Origin of Large Molecules in Primordial Autocatalytic Reaction Networks
Large molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids are crucial for life, yet their primordial origin remains a major puzzle. The production of large molecules, as we know it today, requires good catalysts, and the only good catalysts we know that can accomplish this task consist of large molecules. Thus the origin of large molecules is a chicken and egg problem in chemistry. Here we present a m...
