DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/MoRN/88/">Un
 veiling Surprising Connections Between the Classical Theory of Reaction Ne
 tworks and Generalized Lotka-Volterra Systems</a>\nby Diego Rojas La Luz (
 University of Wisconsin-Madison) as part of Seminar on the Mathematics of 
 Reaction Networks\n\n\nAbstract\nWe explore the relationship between React
 ion Networks and Population Dynamics\, with a specific focus on Generalize
 d Lotka-Volterra systems. Surprisingly\, we find strong analogies between 
 classical Mass Action Kinetics results (like the Horn-Jackson theorem and 
 the deficiency-zero theorem) and new counterparts in Generalized Lotka-Vol
 terra systems\, hinting at a deep connection\, where previously none was k
 nown. Notably\, in the Generalized Lotka-Volterra setting\, we can prove t
 hat “complex-balanced” equilibria (properly defined) are globally attr
 active (which corresponds to the “global attractor conjecture" in the Re
 action Networks setting). As an example\, we show how to apply this new th
 eory to characterize global stability for a large class of cooperative Gen
 eralized Lotka-Volterra systems. We can also extend our results to analyze
  the properties of variable-k systems\, an area not fully explored in the 
 context of Generalized Lotka-Volterra systems. This exploration unlocks un
 tapped insights into the mathematical foundations of these systems\, shedd
 ing light on their connections and paving the way for new avenues of resea
 rch and discovery in this field. This is joint work with Gheorghe Craciun 
 and Polly Yu.\n
