A sufficient condition for defining a CTMC over the aggregates is presented as a variant of weak lumpability, which also characterizes that the measure over the original process can be recovered from that of the aggregated one. We show how the applicability of de-aggregation depends on the initial distribution. The application section is devoted to illustrate how the developed theory aids in reducing CTMC models of biochemical systems particularly in connection to protein-protein interactions. We assume that the model is written by a biologist in form of site-graph-rewrite rules. Site-graph-rewrite rules compactly express that, often, only a local context of a protein (instead of a full molecular species) needs to be in a certain configuration in order to trigger a reaction event. This observation leads to suitable aggregate Markov chains with smaller state spaces, thereby providing sufficient reduction in computational complexity. This is further exemplified in two case studies: simple unbounded polymerization and early EGFR/insulin crosstalk.","lang":"eng"}],"date_created":"2018-12-11T11:55:28Z","intvolume":"        69","publisher":"Springer","author":[{"last_name":"Ganguly","full_name":"Ganguly, Arnab","first_name":"Arnab"},{"first_name":"Tatjana","id":"3D5811FC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0002-9041-0905","full_name":"Petrov, Tatjana","last_name":"Petrov"},{"last_name":"Koeppl","full_name":"Koeppl, Heinz","first_name":"Heinz"}],"department":[{"_id":"CaGu"},{"_id":"ToHe"}],"title":"Markov chain aggregation and its applications to combinatorial reaction networks","doi":"10.1007/s00285-013-0738-7","date_updated":"2021-01-12T06:55:01Z","publication_status":"published","publist_id":"4990","main_file_link":[{"url":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1303.4532","open_access":"1"}],"_id":"2056","page":"767 - 797","month":"11","quality_controlled":"1","user_id":"4435EBFC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","day":"20","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
