   abstract = {We design an algorithm for nding solutions with nonzero
               coordinates of systems of polynomial equations which has a better complexity
               bound than for known algorithms when a system contains a few
               linearly independent monomials. For parametric binomial systems we
               construct an algorithm of polynomial complexity. We discuss the applications
               of these algorithms in the context of chemical reaction systems.}
