Some dynamical properties of delayed weakly reversible mass-action systems

This paper focuses on the dynamical properties of delayed complex balanced systems. We first study the relationship between the stoichiometric compatibility classes of delayed and non-delayed systems. Using this relation we give another way to derive the existence of positive equilibrium in each stoichiometric compatibility class for delayed complex balanced systems. And if time delays are constant, the result can be generalized to weakly reversible networks. Also, by utilizing the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, we can obtain a long-time dynamical property about $\omega$-limit set of the complex balanced system with constant time delays. An example is also provided to support our results.
