Reaction networks are mathematical models used in biochemistry, epidemiology, ecology, and sociology with the aim to describe changes over time of the abundances of interacting particles (such as chemical species, molecules, individuals, animals, etc.). As such, reaction networks attract the interest of both applied scientists and mathematicians: the former need the development of novel mathematical results to properly analyze specific systems, and the latter are intrigued by the non-trivial interplay between the dynamics of the system and the properties of the graph given by the finite set of allowed changes of the interacting items.
