Intrinsic channel noise is fundamental to neural processing, yet its state-dependent nature, when constrained by strict Feller boundary conditions, is often overlooked. Here, we demonstrate that this bounded multiplicative noise is not…
It is well known that the addition of noise in a multistable system can induce random transitions between stable states. The rate of transition can be characterised in terms of the noise-free system's dynamics and the added noise: for…
A decrease in current with increasing voltage, often referred to as negative differential resistance (NDR), has been observed in many electronic devices and can usually be understood within a one-electron picture. However, NDR has recently…
