1. Both port-‐Hamiltonian system theory and the theory of contact systems provide an appropriate geometric framework for the modeling of non-‐isothermal chemical reaction networks. [Chapter 2-‐5]
2. For two different temperatures, the sets of equilibria of a non-‐isothermal chemical reaction network are disjoint. [Chapter 2-‐3]
3. In the modeling of non-‐isothermal chemical reaction networks, the entropy S can be used as the Hamiltonian function. [Chapter 3]
4. The two port-‐Hamiltonian approaches to the modeling of the interconnection of chemical reaction networks can be proved to be equivalent by eliminating the power port constraints. [Chapter 4]
5. The desired Hamiltonian function which generates the stable invariant Legendre submanifold can be determined through the stabilization of contact systems with structure preserving feedback. [Chapter 5]
6. 当我沉默着的时候，我觉得充实；我将开口，同时感到空虚。 When
I am silent, I feel replete; as I open my mouth to speak, I am conscious of emptiness. [Wild Grass by Lu Xun, translated by Yang Xianyi]
7. PhD Life is a miniature of life; full of smiles and tears, getting together and going away.
