Reply to "comment on 'Monte Carlo simulations for a Lotka-type model with reactant surface diffusion and interactions' ".
We reply to the Comment by Zhdanov [preceding paper, Phys. Rev. E 65, blacksquare, square, filled (2002)] on our recent paper [G. Zvejnieks and V. N. Kuzovkov, Phys. Rev. E 63, 051104 (2001)]. We demonstrate that our quite different viewpoints result, in fact, entirely from nonunique definitions of the master equation, which has nothing to do with neglecting important physical principles, as Zhdanov claims.
