Synaptic noise plays a major role in setting up coexistence of various firing patterns, but the precise mechanisms whereby these synaptic noise contributes to coexisting firing activities are subtle and remain elusive. To investigate these…
Theoretical studies of synchronization are usually based on models of coupled phase oscillators which, when isolated, have constant angular frequency. Stochastic discrete versions of these uniform oscillators have also appeared in the…
