چکیده

The work introduces a model for reciprocal connections in neural fields by a nonlocal feedback mechanism, while the neural field exhibits nonlocal interactions and intra-areal transmission delays. We study the speed of traveling fronts with respect to the transmission delay, the spatial feedback range, and the feedback delay for general axonal and feedback connectivity kernels. In addition, we find a novel shape of traveling fronts due to the applied feedback and criteria for its occurrence are derived.

Distributed Nonlocal Feedback Delays May Destabilize Fronts in Neural Fields, Distributed Transmission Delays Do Not

The spread of activity in neural populations is a well-known phenomenon. To understand the propagation speed and the stability of stationary fronts in neural populations, the present work considers a neural field model that involves intracortical and cortico-cortical synaptic interactions. This includes distributions of axonal transmission speeds and nonlocal feedback delays as well as general ...

Neural Fields with Distributed Transmission Speeds and Long-Range Feedback Delays

We introduce distributed axonal transmission speeds and a long-range constant feedback loop into the standard neural field model. We analyze the stability of spatially homogeneous equilibrium solutions for general connectivity kernels. By studying reduced models based on the assumption of small delays, we determine the effects of the delays on the stability and bifurcations. We show in a reduce...

Traveling Fronts in Monostable Equations with Nonlocal Delayed Effects

In this paper, we study the existence, uniqueness and stability of traveling wave fronts in the following nonlocal reaction–diffusion equation with delay ∂u (x, t) ∂t = d u (x, t)+ f ⎛ ⎝u (x, t) , ∞ ∫ −∞ h (x − y) u (y, t − τ) dy ⎞ ⎠. Under the monostable assumption, we show that there exists a minimal wave speed c∗ > 0, such that the equation has no traveling wave front for 0 < c < c∗ and a tr...

Speed hysteresis and noise shaping of traveling fronts in neural fields: role of local circuitry and nonlocal connectivity

Neural field models are powerful tools to investigate the richness of spatiotemporal activity patterns like waves and bumps, emerging from the cerebral cortex. Understanding how spontaneous and evoked activity is related to the structure of underlying networks is of central interest to unfold how information is processed by these systems. Here we focus on the interplay between local properties ...

Existence and stability of traveling wave fronts in reaction advection diffusion equations with nonlocal delay

This paper is concerned with the existence, uniqueness and globally asymptotic stability of traveling wave fronts in the quasi-monotone reaction advection diffusion equations with nonlocal delay. Under bistable assumption, we construct various pairs of superand subsolutions and employ the comparison principle and the squeezing technique to prove that the equation has a unique nondecreasing trav...
