How far is complex balancing from detailed balancing?

Abstract

The aim of this article is to build on the use of tools from computational algebra initiated in Craciun, Dickenstein, Shiu, Sturmfels (JSC, 2009), for the study of general kinetic systems, which have a wide range of applications in chemistry and biology. We clarify the relation between the algebraic conditions that must be satisfied by the reaction constants in general (mass action) kinetics systems for the existence of detailed or complex balancing equilibria. The main properties of these systems have been set by Horn, Jackson and Feinberg.
