Abstract
A reaction network together with a choice of rate constants uniquely gives rise to a system of differential equations, according to the law of mass-action kinetics. On the other hand, different networks can generate the same dynamical system under mass-action kinetics. Therefore, the problem of identifying "the" underlying network of a dynamical system is not well-posed, in general. Here we show that the problem of identifying an underlying weakly reversible deficiency zero network is well-posed, in the sense that the solution is unique whenever it exists. This can be very useful in applications because from the perspective of both dynamics and network structure, a weakly reversible deficiency zero (WR<sub>0</sub>) realization is the simplest possible one. Moreover, while mass-action systems can exhibit practically any dynamical behavior, including multistability, oscillations, and chaos, WR<sub>0</sub> systems are remarkably stable for any choice of rate constants: they have a unique positive steady state within each invariant polyhedron, and cannot give rise to oscillations or chaotic dynamics. We also prove that both of our hypotheses (i.e., weak reversibility and deficiency zero) are necessary for uniqueness.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
