Figure 3

Tropical geometry and Michaelis–Menten mechanism. (A) The tropical manifold of the polynomial ax + by + cxy on “logarithmic paper” is a three lines tripod. (B) The tropical manifolds for the species ES (in red) and S (in blue) for the Michaelis–Menten mechanism. The tropicalized flow is also represented on both sides of the tropical manifolds (with arrows, red on one side, blue on the other side). Sliding modes correspond to blue and red arrows pointing in opposite directions.
