Neural field models of firing rate activity have had a major impact in helping to develop an understanding of the dynamics seen in brain slice preparations. These models typically take …

Abstract Models of neural networks are developed from a biological point of view. Small networks are analysed using techniques from dynamical systems. The behaviour of spatially …
Several neural network models in continuous time are reconsidered in the framework of a general mean-field theory which is exact in the limit of a large and fully connected network …
We consider traveling front and pulse solutions to a system of integro-differential equations used to describe the activity of synaptically coupled neuronal networks in a single spatial …

In this paper we show how a local inhomogeneous input can stabilize a stationary-pulse solution in an excitatory neural network. A subsequent reduction of the input amplitude can …

In this paper we show how to construct the Evans function for traveling wave solutions of integral neural field equations when the firing rate function is a Heaviside. This allows a …

We use averaging and homogenization theory to study the propagation of traveling wavefronts in an inhomogeneous excitable neural medium. Motivated by the functional …
The countermanding task is a standard method for assessing cognitive/inhibitory control over action and for investigating its neural correlates. In it, the subject plans a movement and …
