Popis: Stationary distributions of continuous time Markov chains (CTMCs) are often a main interest, but hard to find. We consider CTMCs modelling reaction networks, and characterise complex balanced distributions (provided they exist) of reaction networks with arbitrary transition functions through conditions on the cycles of their corresponding digraph. The proof works by constructing a dynamically equivalent reaction network of disjoint cycles. We further derive a sufficient condition for the existence of a complex balanced distribution, and give precise conditions on when it is necessary. The sufficient condition holds for mass-action kinetics or if the digraph consists of only cyclic connected components. Hence, we fully characterise the existence and form of complex balanced distributions. Moreover, these results can be used to design complex balanced reaction networks with a given stationary distribution.
