Homogenization of a Wilson-Cowan model for neural fields

Analysis of PDEs 2012-11-12 v2

Abstract

Homogenization of Wilson-Cowan type of nonlocal neural field models is investigated. Motivated by the presence of a convolution terms in this type of models, we first prove some general convergence results related to convolution sequences. We then apply theses results to the homogenization problem of the Wilson-Cowan type model in a general deterministic setting. Key ingredients in this study are the notion of algebras with mean value and the related concept of sigma-convergence.
