Monotone and near-monotone network structure

نویسنده

  • Eduardo D. Sontag
چکیده

This paper provides an expository introduction to monotone and near-monotone biochemical network structures. Monotone systems respond in a predictable fashion to perturbations, and have very robust dynamical characteristics. This makes them reliable components of more complex networks, and suggests that natural biological systems may have evolved to be, if not monotone, at least close to monotone. In addition, interconnections of monotone systems may be fruitfully analyzed using tools from control theory.

Monotone and near-monotone network structure (part I)

This paper (parts I and II) provides an expository introduction to monotone and near-monotone dynamical systems associated to biochemical networks, those whose graphs are consistent or near-consistent. Many conclusions can be drawn from signed network structure, associated to purely stoichiometric information and ignoring fluxes. In particular, monotone systems respond in a predictable fashion ...

Fr{'e}chet and Hausdorff Queries on $x$-Monotone Trajectories

vspace{0.2cm}In this paper, we design a data structure for the following problem. Let $pi$ be an $x$-monotone trajectory with $n$ vertices in the plane and $epsilon >0$. We show how to preprocess $pi$ and $epsilon$ into a data structure such that for any horizontal query segment $Q$ in the plane, one can quickly determine the minimal continuous fraction of $pi$ whose Fr{'e}chet and Hausdo...

Monotone and near-monotone network structure (part II)

We next describe recent work on monotone input/output systems (“MIOS” from now on). Monotone i/o systems originated in the analysis of mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades and other cell signaling networks, but later proved useful in the study of a broad variety of other biological models. Their surprising breath of applicability notwithstanding, of course MIOS constitute a restricted clas...
