Limit theorems in stochastic biochemical modelling. (English) Zbl 0532.92008

The paper attempts to explain how the equations for the description of relevant quantities in a biochemical reaction may be derived rigorously from a microscopic model by the use of limit theorems of stochastic processes. The authors choose as starting point the kinetic equation for the average fractional occupancy which in turn is interpreted as the expected value of an appropriate jump process.
