Abstract

The usual stochastic model of complex chemical reactions delineates a class of continuous time Markovian jump processes with the state space INM O, where M is the number of chemical components or species. As a continuation of previous investigations structure of the state space (including irreducibility and aperiodicity) is fully studied in the special cases where either the number of chemical components or the number of elementary reactions making up the complex chemical reaction equals one.
