In the first three sections of this chapter, we’ll make precise some of the ideas that were introduced casually in Chapter 2. Section 3.1 contains our definition of a reaction network along with a small amount of auxiliary terminology. In Section 3.2 we introduce the notion of a kinetics for a network, and we discuss mass action kinetics as the archetypal example. In Section 3.3 we indicate in vectorial terms how a kinetic system—that is, a reaction network endowed with a kinetics—induces a system of differential equations. |
