Before revision: We study families of chemical reaction networks , with toric steady states . Larger family members are constructed algorithmically from a smallest networkand we show that many results about the entire family can be obtained by studying the small family members only.
After revision: We study families of chemical reaction networks whose positive steady states are toric, and therefore can be parameterized by monomials. Families are constructed algorithmically from a smallest networkand we show that many results about the entire family can be obtained by studying the small family members only.
