The Exp-function method can be used as an alternative to obtain analytic and approximate solutions of different types of differential equations. In this work Exp -function method is used to find exact solitary wave solutions for Fitzhugh-Nagumo equation. The method is straightforward and concise and its applications for Fitzhugh-Nagumo equation enable one to find exact traveling wave solutions....

This paper studies the solutions of a reaction–diffusion system with nonlinearities that generalise the Lengyel–Epstein and FitzHugh–Nagumo nonlinearities. Sufficient conditions are derived for the global asymptotic stability of the system’s solutions and confirmed through numerical Examples.

We study a sigmoidal version of the FitzHugh-Nagumo reaction-diffusion system based on an analytic description using piecewise linear approximations of the reaction kinetics. We completely describe the dynamics of wave fronts and discuss the properties of the speed equation. The speed diagrams show front bifurcations between branches with one, three, or five fronts that differ significantly fro...

We consider a FitzHugh-Nagumo Reaction-Diffusion type system (FHN). The dynamics of the reaction part induces a unique repulsive stationnary point (0, 0) and a unique attractive limit cycle. After a description of the asymptotic behaviour of the FHN system, we deal with the synchronization and control analysis of N coupled FHN systems.

In this paper, we make some analysis on the FitzHugh-Nagumo model and improve it to build a neural network, and the network is used to implement visual selection and attention shifting. Each group of neurons representing one object of a visual input is synchronized; different groups of neurons representing different objects of a visual input are desynchronized. Cooperation and competition mecha...

We consider a network of reaction diffusion systems of generalized FitzHugh-Nagumo type, where the cubic function is replaced by a polynomial function with odd degree. We deal with asymptotic behaviour and synchronization of the whole network. These results extend a previous work in which we considered particular systems of FitzHugh Nagumo type.

Using a model system of FitzHugh-Nagumo type in the excitable regime, the similarity between synchronization of self-sustained and noise-induced oscillations is studied for the case of more than one main frequency in the spectrum. It is shown that this excitable system undergoes the same frequency lockings as a self-sustained quasiperiodic oscillator. The presence of noise-induced both stable a...

The four-dimensional Hodgkin–Huxley equations are considered as the prototype for description of neural pulse propagation. Their mathematical complexity and sophistication prompted a simplified two-dimensional model, the FitzHugh–Nagumo equations, which display many of the former’s dynamical features. Numerical and mathematical analysis are employed to demonstrate that the FitzHugh–Nagumo equat...

The electrophysiology of cardiac myocytes is tightly coupled to mechanics. One aspect of this is apparent in the effects of mechanical strain on cardiac action potential dynamics. These can be considered through adjustments to classic electrophysiological models. The standard FitzHugh Nagumo model is a reduced two-variable model from Hodgkin-Huxley that can reproduce basic mechanisms of action ...
