چکیده

Conductance-based (CB) models are a class of high dimensional dynamical systems derived from biophysical principles to describe in detail the electrical dynamics of single neurons. Despite the high dimensionality of these models, the dynamics observed for realistic parameter values is generically planar and can be minimally described by two equations. In this work, we derive the conditions to have a Bogdanov–Takens (BT) bifurcation in CB models, and we argue that it is plausible that these conditions are verified for experimentally-sensible values of the parameters. We show numerically that the cubic BT normal form, a two-variable dynamical system, exhibits all of the diversity of bifurcations generically observed in single neuron models. We show that the Morris–Lecar model is approximately equivalent to the cubic Bogdanov–Takens normal form for realistic values of parameters. Furthermore, we explicitly calculate the quadratic coefficient of the BT normal form for a generic CB model, obtaining that by constraining the theoretical I-V curve’s curvature to match experimental observations, the normal form appears to be naturally cubic. We propose the cubic BT normal form as a robust minimal model for single neuron dynamics that can be derived from biophysically-realistic CB models.

Complex dynamics in a two - compartment neuronal model

A neuron is a complex living cell, with intricate ion dynamics and vast system of treelike branches called dendrites. Mathematical models of a neuron often group the soma and dendrites into a single compartment, thereby simplifying the governing dynamical system. This however, does not explicitly consider the spatial extent of the dendrites and assumes that electric potential is transferred fro...

Bogdanov-takens Singularity of a Neural Network Model with Delay

In this article, we study Bogdanov-Takens (BT) singularity of a tree-neuron model with time delay. By using the frameworks of CampbellYuan [2] and Faria-Magalhães [4, 5], the normal form on the center manifold is derived for this singularity and hence the corresponding bifurcation diagrams such as Hopf, double limit cycle, and triple limit cycle bifurcations are obtained. Examples are given to ...

The Bogdanov-Takens bifurcation study of 2m coupled neurons system with 2m+1$2m+1$ delays

In this paper the Bogdanov-Takens (BT) bifurcation of an 2m coupled neurons network model with multiple delays is studied, where one neuron is excitatory and the next is inhibitory. When the origin of the model has a double zero eigenvalue, by using center manifold reduction of delay differential equations (DDEs), the second-order and third-order universal unfoldings of the normal forms are ded...

Bifurcations of an Sirs Epidemic Model with Nonlinear Incidence Rate

The main purpose of this paper is to explore the dynamics of an epidemic model with a general nonlinear incidence βSI/(1 + αI). The existence and stability of multiple endemic equilibria of the epidemic model are analyzed. Local bifurcation theory is applied to explore the rich dynamical behavior of the model. Normal forms of the model are derived for different types of bifurcations, including ...
