Overview
Explore the fundamental principles of chemical reaction networks in this comprehensive lecture. Delve into the various levels of abstraction in modern chemical networks, examining the differences between reversible and irreversible reactions. Investigate hexagonic reactions, subsystems, and futile cyclists while gaining insights into conservation and abstract sum formulas. Analyze complex networks, elementary reactions, and quantum field theory applications in chemical systems. Conclude by considering realistic conditions and their impact on chemical reaction networks.
