International audience. In the context of the study into elementary modes of metabolic networks, we prove two complexity results. Enumerating elementary modes containing a specific reaction is hard in an enumeration complexity sense. The decision problem if there exists an elementary mode containing two specific reactions is NP-complete. The complexity of enumerating all elementary modes remains open.

International audience. We present a constrained version of the problem of enumerating all maximal directed acyclic subgraphs (DAG) of a graph G. In this version, we enumerate maximal DAGs whose sources and targets ...
