OxTalks Change Freeze Starts 2 March
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Algebraic approaches in the study of chemical reaction networks
Underlying many biological models are chemical reaction networks (CRNs), and identifying allowed and forbidden dynamics in reaction networks may give insight into biological mechanisms. Algebraic approaches have been important in several recent developments. For example, computational algebra has helped us characterise all small mass action CRNs admitting certain bifurcations; allowed us to find interesting and surprising examples and counterexamples; and suggested a number of conjectures. Progress generally involves an interaction between analysis and computation: on the one hand, theorems which recast apparently difficult questions about dynamics as (relatively tractable) algebraic problems; and on the other, computations which provide insight into deeper theoretical questions. I’ll present some results, examples, and open
questions, focussing on two domains of CRN theory: the study of local bifurcations, and the study of multistationarity.
