We consider a firing rate model of a neuronal network continuum that incorporates axo-
dendritic synaptic processing and the finite conduction velocities of action potentials. The
model equation is an integral one defined on a spatially extended domain. Apart from a
spatial integral mixing the network connectivity function with space-dependent delays,
arising from non-instantaneous axonal communication, the integral model also includes a
temporal integration over some appropriately identified distributed delay kernel. These …
