Colloquium
'Binomials, hypergeometric functions and mass action kinetics chemical reaction networks'
Abstract: A binomial is a polynomial with two terms. Algebraic varieties cut out by binomials have a rich combinatorial structure. In the first part ot the talk we shall highlight basic -yet not so known- facts about binomial systems as basic blocks in the study of general polynomial systems. In the second part, we shall concentrate on two occurrences of binomials in a differential setting: in the beautiful formulation by Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky of multivariate hypergeometric systems of linear PDE´s, and in the reversible mass action kinetics chemical reaction systems of non linear ODE´s.
