Verification of these properties is achieved through a novel algorithm that can be used to generate cones for monotone systems. The results given here allow a unified proof of global convergence for several classes of networks that had been previously studied in the literature.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-04-29T14:28:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "reaction networks", "monotonicity", "contractivity", "work studies relationships", "appropriate compactness conditions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
