Onset of time dependence in ensembles of excitable elements with global repulsive coupling.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the effect of global repulsive coupling on an ensemble of identical excitable elements. An increase of the coupling strength destabilizes the synchronous equilibrium and replaces it with many attracting oscillatory states, created in the transcritical heteroclinic bifurcation. The period of oscillations is inversely proportional to the distance from the critical parameter value. If the elements interact with the global field via the first Fourier harmonics of their phases, the stable equilibrium is in one step replaced by the attracting continuum of periodic motions.

Spontaneous formation of synchronization clusters in homogenous neuronal ensembles induced by noise and interaction delays.
The spontaneous formation of clusters of synchronized spiking in a structureless ensemble of equal stochastically perturbed excitable neurons with delayed coupling is demonstrated for the first time. The effect is a consequence of a subtle interplay between interaction delays, noise, and the excitable character of a single neuron. The dependence of the cluster properties on the time lag, noise ...
متن کاملGlobal firing induced by network disorder in ensembles of active rotators
We study the influence of repulsive interactions on an ensemble of coupled excitable rotators. We find that a moderate fraction of repulsive interactions can trigger global firing of the ensemble. The regime of global firing, however, is suppressed in sufficiently large systems if the network of repulsive interactions is fully random, due to self-averaging in its degree distribution. We thus in...
متن کاملPair of excitable FitzHugh-Nagumo elements: synchronization, multistability, and chaos.
We analyze a pair of excitable FitzHugh-Nagumo elements, each of which is coupled repulsively. While the rest state for each element is globally stable for a phase-attractive coupling, various firing patterns, including cyclic and chaotic firing patterns, exist in an phase-repulsive coupling region. Although the rest state becomes linearly unstable via a Hopf bifurcation, periodic solutions ass...
متن کاملEffect of small-world topology on wave propagation on networks of excitable elements
We study excitationwaves on aNewman–Watts small-world networkmodel of coupled excitable elements. Depending on the global coupling strength, wefind differing resilience to the added longrange links and differentmechanisms of propagation failure. For high coupling strengths, we show agreement between the network and a reaction-diffusionmodel with additionalmean-field term. Employing this approxi...
متن کاملSynchronization and frustration in oscillator networks with attractive and repulsive interactions
– We study, numerically and analytically, the stability of synchronization for an ensemble of coupled phase oscillators with attractive and repulsive interactions, as a function of the number of repulsive couplings and their intensity. Scaling properties of the desynchronization transition are disclosed, and it is shown that unsynchronized configurations have different symmetries depending on t...
