Networks in nature have complex interactions among agents. One significant phenomenon induced by interactions is synchronization of coupled agents, and the interactive network topology can be tuned to optimize synchronization. The previous…

Measured responses from visual cortical neurons show that spike times tend to be correlated rather than exactly Poisson distributed. Fano factors vary and are usually greater than 1 due to the tendency of spikes being clustered into bursts.…

Temporal correlations in the brain are thought to have very dichotomic roles. On one hand they are ubiquitously present in the healthy brain and are thought to underlie feature binding during information processing. On the other hand large…

A major goal of neuroscience, statistical physics and nonlinear dynamics is to understand how brain function arises from the collective dynamics of networks of spiking neurons. This challenge has been chiefly addressed through large-scale…

Networks of excitatory and inhibitory neurons display asynchronous irregular (AI) states, where the activities of the two populations are balanced. At the single cell level, it was shown that neurons subject to balanced and noisy synaptic…

Advances in neural recording methods enable sampling from populations of thousands of neurons during the performance of behavioral tasks, raising the question of how recorded activity relates to the theoretical models of computations…

We study a Kuramoto model in which the oscillators are associated with the nodes of a complex network and the interactions include a phase frustration, thus preventing full synchronization. The system organizes into a regime of remote…

Through the last years, different strategies to enhance synchronization in complex networks have been proposed. In this Letter, we show that the synchronization in a small-world network of attractively coupled non-identical neurons is…

We examine the response of type II excitable neurons to trains of synaptic pulses, as a function of the pulse frequency and amplitude. We show that the resonant behavior characteristic of type II excitability, already described for harmonic…

The dynamical properties of a diluted fully-inhibitory network of pulse-coupled neurons are investigated. Depending on the coupling strength, two different phases can be observed. At low coupling the evolution rapidly converges towards…

This paper describes how realistic neuromorphic networks can have their connectivity fully characterized in analytical fashion. By assuming that all neurons have the same shape and are regularly distributed along the two-dimensional…

Neural circuits exhibit structured connectivity, including an overrepresentation of reciprocal connections between neuron pairs. Despite important advances, a full understanding of how such partial symmetry in connectivity shapes neural…

Many neural systems display cascading behavior characterized by uninterrupted sequences of neuronal firing. This gap precludes an understanding of how variations in network structure manifest in neural dynamics and either support or impinge…

Many types of neurons exhibit spike rate adaptation, mediated by intrinsic slow $\mathrm{K}^+$-currents, which effectively inhibit neuronal responses. How these adaptation currents change the relationship between in-vivo like fluctuating…

Directed cycles form the fundamental motifs in natural, social and artificial networks, yet their distinct computational roles remain under-explored, particularly in the context of higher-order structure and function. In this work, we…

Many real-world systems of coupled agents exhibit directed interactions, meaning that the influence of an agent on another is not reciprocal. Furthermore, interactions usually do not have identical amplitude and/or sign. To describe…

Hierarchically modular organization is a canonical network topology that is evolutionarily conserved in the nervous systems of animals. Within the network, neurons form directional connections defined by the growth of their axonal…

Neurons encode and transmit information in spike sequences. However, despite the effort devoted to quantify their information content, little progress has been made in this regard. Here we use a nonlinear method of time-series analysis…

Directed information transmission is paramount for many social, physical, and biological systems. For neural systems, scientists have studied this problem under the paradigm of feedforward networks for decades. In most models of feedforward…

We analyze populations of Kuramoto oscillators with a particular distribution of natural frequencies. Inspired by networks where there are two groups of nodes with opposite behaviors, as for instance in power-grids where energy is either…
