Chemical Reaction Network Structure and the Stability of Complex Isothermal Reactors--i. the Deficiency Zero and Deficiency One Theorems
نویسنده
چکیده
The dynamics of complex isothermal reactors arc studied in general terms with special focus on connections between reaction network structure and the capacity of the corresponding differential equations to admit unstable behavior. As in some earlier work, the principal results rely on a classification of reaction networks by means of an easily computed non-negative integer index called the deficiency. This index often provides nontrivial information about the kind of dynamics that can be expected. Part of the previously reported Deficiency Zero Theorem is substantially generalized by the Deficiency One Theorem. The foundation is laid for a companion article containing a theory of multiple steady states generated by reaction networks of deficiency one.

While there has been a longstanding interest in stability of non-isothermal reactors there has only recently developed a comparable interest in the dynamics of onen isothermal reactors with complex chemical reaction networks. In the recent literature there has been paid particular attention to the study of biological reaction systems which might exhibit sustained oscillations (biological clocks...
متن کاملComputing weakly reversible linearly conjugate chemical reaction networks with minimal deficiency.
Mass-action kinetics is frequently used in systems biology to model the behavior of interacting chemical species. Many important dynamical properties are known to hold for such systems if their underlying networks are weakly reversible and have a low deficiency. In particular, the Deficiency Zero and Deficiency One Theorems guarantee strong regularity with regards to the number and stability of...
متن کاملPersistence and global stability of chemical reaction networks
We describe sufficient conditions for persistence of dynamical systems given by chemical reaction networks with mass-action kinetics. These conditions are expressed in terms of properties of special subnetworks of the original network. Under additional assumptions, such as deficiency zero or the existence of a complex balanced equilibrium, we conclude global asymptotic stability of the mass-act...
متن کاملLeukocyte Adhesion Deficiency Type 1 Presenting as Leukemoid Reaction
The hallmarks of leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) are defects in the leukocyte adhesion process, marked leukocytosis and recurrent infections. These molecular and clinical manifestations result from an impaired step in the inflammatory process, namely, the emigration of leukocytes from the blood vessels to sites of infection, which requires adhesion of leukocytes to the endothelium. Over las...
