Abstract:
We consider stochastic models of chemical reaction networks with time-dependent input rates and several types of molecules. We prove that, in spite of strong time dependence of input rates, there is a kind of homeostasis phenomenon: far away from input nodes the mean numbers of molecules of each type become approximately constant (do not depend on time).
Keywords:stochastic models of biological systems, almost periodic input rates, stochastic networks, thermodynamic limit.
