Biological information processing is often carried out by complex networks of interconnected dynamical units. A basic question about such networks is that of reliability: if the same signal is presented many times with the network in…
A large number of processes in the mesoscopic world occur out of equilibrium, where the time course of a system evolution becomes immensely important since it is driven principally by dissipative effects. Non-equilibrium steady states…
The effect of stochasticity, in the form of Gaussian white noise, in a predator-prey model with two distinct time-scales is presented. A supercritical singular Hopf bifurcation yields a Type II excitability in the deterministic model. We…
In this article, we study an interacting particle system in the context of epidemiology where the individuals (particles) are characterized by their position and infection state. We begin with a description at the microscopic level where…
We consider a system of nonlinear partial differential equations with stochastic dynamical boundary conditions that arises in models of neurophysiology for the diffusion of electrical potentials through a finite network of neurons.…
This paper focus on investigating the explicit rate of convergence for the propagation of chaos, in a pathwise sense a family of interacting stochastic particle related to some Brownian driven McKean-Vlasov dynamics. Precisely the McKean…
Networks of stochastic spiking neurons are interesting models in the area of Theoretical Neuroscience, presenting both continuous and discontinuous phase transitions. Here we study fully connected networks analytically, numerically and by…
In this paper, we study analytically the impact of an inhibitory autapse on neuronal activity. In order to do this, we formulate conditions on a set of non-adaptive spiking neuron models with delayed feedback inhibition, instead of…
While most models of randomly connected networks assume nodes with simple dynamics, nodes in realistic highly connected networks, such as neurons in the brain, exhibit intrinsic dynamics over multiple timescales. We analyze how the…
By introducing extrinsic noise as well as intrinsic uncertainty into a network with stochastic events, this paper studies the dynamics of the resulting Markov random network and characterizes a novel phenomenon of intermittent…
Chaos provides many interesting properties that can be used to achieve computational tasks. Such properties are sensitivity to initial conditions, space filling, control and synchronization. Chaotic neural models have been devised to…
The study of balanced networks of excitatory and inhibitory neurons has led to several open questions. On the one hand it is yet unclear whether the asynchronous state observed in the brain is autonomously generated, or if it results from…
Neuronal circuits arise as axons and dendrites extend, navigate, and connect to target cells. Axonal growth, in particular, integrates deterministic guidance from substrate mechanics and geometry with stochastic fluctuations generated by…
The work [8] established memory loss in the time-dependent (non-random) case of uniformly expanding maps of the interval. Here we find conditions under which we have convergence to the normal distribution of the appropriately scaled…
The highly irregular spiking activity of cortical neurons and behavioral variability suggest that the brain could operate in a fundamentally probabilistic way. Mimicking how the brain implements and learns probabilistic computation could be…
A simple threshold model of neuron firing (with the neuron membrane electrochemical potential governed by the chaotic Rossler attractor) has been analyzed by mapping the generated irregular spiking time-series into telegraph signals. In…
We study a system of $N$ interacting particles on $\bf{Z}$. The stochastic dynamics consists of two components: a free motion of each particle (independent random walks) and a pair-wise interaction between particles. The interaction belongs…
In this paper, we investigate the fundamental limits on how the inter- spike time of a neuron oscillator can be perturbed by the application of a bounded external control input (a current stimulus) with zero net electric charge…
Neuronal cells present periodic trains of localized voltage spikes involving a large amount of different ionic channels. A relevant question is whether this is a cooperative effect or it could also be an intrinsic property of individual…
Random metastability occurs when an externally forced or noisy system possesses more than one state of apparent equilibrium. This work investigates fluctuations in a class of random dynamical systems, arising from randomly perturbing a…
