We study the effect of intrinsic heterogeneity on the activity of a population of leaky integrate-and-fire neurons. By rescaling the dynamical equation, we derive mathematical relations between multiple neuronal parameters and a fluctuating…

We demonstrate the existence of noise-induced periodicity (coherence resonance) in both a discrete-time model and a continuous-time model of an excitable neuron. In particular, we show that the effects of noise added to the fast and slow…

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…

We examine the effects of stochastic input currents on the firing behavior of two excitable neurons coupled with fast excitatory synapses. In such cells (models), typified by the quadratic integrate and fire model, mutual synaptic coupling…

We study a network of spiking neurons with heterogeneous excitabilities connected via inhibitory delayed pulses. For globally coupled systems the increase of the inhibitory coupling reduces the number of firing neurons by following a Winner…

The presence of correlated noise, arising from a mixture of independent fluctuations and a common noisy input shared across the neural population, is a ubiquitous feature of neural circuits, yet its impact on collective network dynamics…

Simplified neuronal models capture the essence of the electrical activity of a generic neuron, besides being more interesting from the computational point of view when compared to higher dimensional models such as the Hodgkin-Huxley one. In…

We continue the work of a series of previous studies of a mathematical model that describes the mean-field limit behavior of a homogeneous network of excitatory point spiking neurons. Contrary to other models, here noise is intrinsic to the…

In this paper, we examine the effects of correlated Gaussian noise on a two-dimensional neuronal network that is locally modeled by the Rulkov map. More precisely, we study the effects of the noise correlation on the variations of the mean…

A neural correlate of parametric working memory is a stimulus specific rise in neuron firing rate that persists long after the stimulus is removed. Network models with local excitation and broad inhibition support persistent neural…

The collective behavior of cortical neurons is strongly affected by the presence of noise at the level of individual cells. In order to study these phenomena in large-scale assemblies of neurons, we consider networks of firing-rate neurons…

Noise appears in the brain due to various sources, such as ionic channel fluctuations and synaptic events. They affect the activities of the brain and influence neuron action potentials. Stochastic differential equations have been used to…

The impact of inhibitory and excitatory synapses in delay-coupled Hodgkin--Huxley neurons that are driven by noise is studied. If both synaptic types are used for coupling, appropriately tuned delays in the inhibition feedback induce…

We examine the behavior in the presence of noise of an array of Morris-Lecar neurons coupled via chemical synapses. Special attention is devoted to comparing this behavior with the better known case of electrical coupling arising via gap…

Several experiments and models have highlighted the importance of neuronal heterogeneity in brain dynamics and function. However, how such a cell-to-cell diversity can affect cortical computation, synchronization, and neuronal communication…

The performance of attractor neural networks has been shown to depend crucially on the heterogeneity of the underlying topology. We take this analysis a step further by examining the effect of degree-degree correlations -- or assortativity…

There is consensus in the current literature that stable states of asynchronous irregular spiking activity require (i) large networks of 10 000 or more neurons and (ii) external background activity or pacemaker neurons. Yet already in 1963,…

We study the effects of noise on the collective dynamics of an ensemble of coupled phase oscillators whose natural frequencies are all identical, but whose coupling strengths are not the same all over the ensemble. The intensity of noise…

The studies of collective oscillations induced by higher-order interactions point out the necessity of group effect in coupling modelization. As yet the related advances are mainly concentrated on nonlinear coupling patterns and cannot be…

We study the dynamics of excitable integrate-and-fire neurons in a small-world network. At low densities $p$ of directed random connections, a localized transient stimulus results in either self-sustained persistent activity or in a brief…
