A bioc hemical system exhibits ACR in some species if the steady-state value of t hat species does not depend on initial conditions. Thus\, a system with AC R can maintain a constant level of one species even as the environment cha nges. Despite a great deal of interest in ACR in recent years\, the follow ing basic question remains open: How can we determine quickly whether a gi ven biochemical system has ACR? This talk presents new methods for decidin g ACR\, which harness computational algebra.\n\nThis is joint work with Lu is David García Puente\, Elizabeth Gross\, Heather A Harrington\, Matthew Johnston\, Nicolette Meshkat\, and Mercedes Pérez Millán.\n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/MoRN/87/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
