1
Mathematical Analysis of Robustness Sensitivity analysis allows the linking of robustness to network structure. However, it yields only local properties regarding a particular choice of plausible parameter values, because it is hard to know the exact parameter values in vivo. Global and firm results are needed that do not depend on particular parameter values. We propose mathematical analysis for robustness (MAR) that consists of the two-step evolutionary search for all possible values of kinetic parameters and robustness analysis for identifying critically important reactions without insisting on the exact parameter values.

Two-step search evolutionary for exhaustive search of all possible kinetic parameter values The two-step evolutionary search that combines a random search with a search by GAs. First, the random search explores a large parameter space to find multiple coarse solutions showing a good fitness value. Second, each initial population for GAs is created around one of the coarse solution vectors. The search by GAs focuses on the space surrounding the coarse solution and is applied to each initial population independently to find plausible solutions that show a high fitness value.

Classification of the sensitivity distribution and the parameter vectors Critical parameters (high sensitive) are uniquely determined in highly robust systems, while kinetic parameter values are not. Highly robust

13
MAR identifies the reactions critically responsible for determining the period and amplitude in the interlocked feedback model and suggests that the circadian clock intensively evolves or designs the kinetic parameters so that it creates a highly robust cycle. Conclusion
