Non-cyclic Geometric Phase In Stochastic Processes: Corrections To Michaelis-menten Kinetics And Applications To A Cell Growth Model

Journal Article · · Europhysics Letters
OSTI ID:964942

We generalize the concept of the geometric phase in stochastic kinetics to a noncyclic evolution. Its application is demonstrated on kinetics of the Michaelis-Menten reaction. It is shown that the noncyclic geometric phase is responsible for the correction to the Michaelis-Menten law when parameters, such as a substrate concentration, are changing with time. We also discuss a model, where this correction qualitatively changes the outcome of reaction kinetics.
