A simple biochemical reaction with three molecules has solutions that oscillate towards a steady state when positive constants a and b are below the curve b-a=(b+a)^3. Find the largest possible value of a for which the reaction has solutions that oscillate toward a steady state.(Hint: Find where da/db=0. Derive values for a+b and a-b, and then solve the equations in two unknowns.)
