Stochastic model

Introduction

We want to simulate a cell where is happening all the chemical reactions discribed in the Deterministic Model as a Stochastical Process whose states are determinated by a collection of nine numbers:

\begin{equation} (et, met, X_f,X_{et}, X_{met}, P_f,P_{et}, P_{met}, R) \end{equation} \begin{equation} A \longrightarrow B$ \end{equation} \begin{equation} p(t) = \lambda e^{-\lambda t} \end{equation}

These are the only kind of distribution in continuous time which do not have a "memory" that means:

\begin{equation} P(X (t+\delta t) = i | X(t) = j) =P(X (\delta t) = i | X(0) = j) \end{equation}

So the probability does not depend of which states the system was in the time interval [0,t]

A larger explanation of that is in Chapter 5 of [1].

\begin{equation} \end{equation} \begin{equation} \end{equation} \begin{equation} \end{equation} \begin{equation} \end{equation} \begin{equation} \end{equation} \begin{equation} \end{equation}
