Iterative numerical simulations are used to derive analytical approximations using the Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) and the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). The fractional-order model indicates that the concentrations of free enzyme and inhibitor decrease gradually and the concentration of substrate remains relatively constant over the time period. The enzyme-substrate conversion is represented by the monotonic growth of product concentration. Among the intermediates, <span>(C_1(t))</span> varies slightly, <span>(C_2(t))</span> reaches relatively higher values and <span>(C_3(t))</span> is relatively small, as expected from the reaction schemes described by the model. Both HAM and HPM are successful in describing the overall kinetic behaviour of the system. Error analysis reveals that both approaches are better for different components of the system, with improved agreement of HPM for some components and better convergence properties of HAM. The findings demonstrate that both semi-analytical approaches are reliable and efficient tools for solving nonlinear fractional-order chemical kinetic systems and the numerical approximation provides a trustworthy benchmark.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":648,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Chemistry","volume":"64 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147738106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We then derive necessary and sufficient conditions, formulated in terms of the behavior of a modified Arrhenius reaction term, that ensure boundedness of solutions. A blow-up criterion for the Arrhenius-Kooij equation is also established. In the second part of the paper, we study the corresponding elliptic equations. To provide a comprehensive perspective, we recall their connection with the classical Liouville approach, rooted in the theory of surfaces with constant Gaussian curvature. As an application, we construct several explicit regular solutions to the associated boundary value problems using the Liouville formula, thereby recovering known results previously obtained by various authors via different methods.
