Accurately modeling chemical reactions at the atomistic level requires high-level electronic structure theory due to the presence of unpaired electrons and the need to properly describe bond breaking and making energetics. Commonly used…

We provide a rigorous definition of free-energy transduction and its efficiency in arbitrary -- linear or nonlinear -- open chemical reaction networks (CRNs) operating at steady state. Our method is based on the knowledge of the…

A decomposition of a chemical reaction network (CRN) is produced by partitioning its set of reactions. The partition induces networks, called subnetworks, that are "smaller" than the given CRN which, at this point, can be called parent…
