Evans Functions for Integral Neural Field Equations with Heaviside Firing Rate Function
In this paper we show how to construct the Evans function for traveling wave solutions of integral neural field equations when the firing rate function is a Heaviside. This allows a discussion of wave stability and bifurcation as a function of system parameters, including the speed and strength of synaptic coupling and the speed of axonal signals. The theory is illustrated with the construction...
متن کاملAn integral formula for Heaviside neural networks
A connection is investigated between integral formulas and neural networks based on the Heaviside function. The integral formula developed by Kůrková, Kainen and Kreinovich is derived in a new way for odd dimensions and extended to even dimensions. In particular, it is shown that well-behaved functions of d variables can be represented by integral combinations of Heavisides with weights dependi...
متن کاملThe Evans function for nonlocal equations
In recent studies of the master mode-locking equation, a model for solid-state cavity laser that includes nonlocal terms, bifurcations from stationary to seemingly time-periodic solitary waves have been observed. To decide whether the mechanism is a Hopf bifurcation or a bifurcation from the essential spectrum, a general framework for the Evans function for equations with nonlocal terms is deve...
متن کاملHYBRID FUNCTIONS APPROACH AND PIECEWISE CONSTANT FUNCTION BY COLLOCATION METHOD FOR THE NONLINEAR VOLTERRA-FREDHOLM INTEGRAL EQUATIONS
In this work, we will compare two approximation method based on hybrid Legendre andBlock-Pulse functions and a computational method for solving nonlinear Fredholm-Volterraintegral equations of the second kind which is based on replacement of the unknown functionby truncated series of well known Block-Pulse functions (BPfs) expansion
متن کاملFiring-rate Models for Neural Populations
I discuss the construction of models that describe the ring rates of excitatory and inhibitory neurons in biological neural networks. A model is presented that incorporates both slow linear and fast nonlinear inhibition. With the appropriate excitatory-to-excitatory couplings this model can act as an associative memory in which pattern recognition is signalled by resonant ring behavior. Stored ...
