| contents | In this paper we study a class of stochastic chemical reaction networks (CRNs) for which chemical species are created by a sequence of chain reactions. We prove that under some convenient conditions on the initial state, some of these networks exhibit a discrete-induced transitions (DIT) property: isolated, random, events have a direct impact on the macroscopic state of the process. If this phenomenon has already been noticed in several CRNs, in auto-catalytic networks in the literature of physics in particular, there are up to now few rigorous studies in this domain. A scaling analysis of several cases of such CRNs with several classes of initial states is achieved. The DIT property is investigated for the case of a CRN with four nodes. We show that on the normal timescale and for a subset of (large) initial states and for convenient Skorohod topologies, the scaled process converges in distribution to a Markov process with jumps, an Additive Increase/Multiplicative Decrease (AIMD) process. This asymptotically discontinuous limiting behavior is a consequence of a DIT property due to random, local, blowups of jumps occurring during small time intervals. With an explicit representation of invariant measures of AIMD processes and time-change arguments, we show that, with a speed-up of the timescale, the scaled process is converging in distribution to a continuous deterministic function. The DIT analyzed in this paper is connected to a simple chain reaction between three chemical species and is therefore likely to be a quite generic phenomenon for a large class of CRNs. |
