Intermittent Chaotic Neural Firing Characterized by Non-Smooth Features

A chaotic firing pattern, characterized by non-smooth features and generated through the routine of intermittency from period 3, is observed in biological experiments on a neural firing pacemaker and reproduced in simulations by using a theoretical neuronal model with multiple time scales. This chaotic activity exhibits a scale law very similar to those of both the type-Ⅰ intermitteney generated in smooth systems and the type-Ⅴ intermittency in non-smooth systems.

Optical Bistability in V Medium by Squeezed Vacuum Input

In this paper we present the analytic expressions of partition lines in the parametric space of a piece-wise smooth mapping describing an electronic relaxation oscillator. The supercritical regions with permission of period-doubling bifurcation, prohibition of period-doubling bifurcation, and complete phase-locking are discussed. Among them the region, where period-doubling bifurcation is prohibited but chaos is permitted is reported for the first time to our knowledge. These kinds of phenomena and regions can be observed in a lot of similar systems.     

Bifurcation diagram globally underpinning neuronal firing behaviors modified by SK conductance

Neurons in the brain utilize various firing trains to encode the input signals they have received.Firing behavior of one single neuron is thoroughly explained by using a bifurcation diagram from polarized resting to firing,and then to depolarized resting.This explanation provides an important theoretical principle for understanding neuronal biophysical behaviors.This paper reports the novel experimental and modeling results of the modification of such a bifurcation diagram by adjusting small conductance potassium(SK)channel.In experiments,changes in excitability and depolarization block in nucleus accumbens shell and medium-spiny projection neurons are explored by increasing the intensity of injected current and blocking the SK channels by apamin.A shift of bifurcation points is observed.Then,a Hodgkin–Huxley type model including the main electrophysiological processes of such neurons is developed to reproduce the experimental results.The reduction of SK channel conductance also shifts the bifurcations,which is in consistence with experiment.A global bifurcation paradigm of this shift is obtained by adjusting two parameters,intensity of injected current and SK channel conductance.This work reveals the dynamics underpinning modulation of neuronal firing behaviors by biologically important ionic conductance.The results indicate that small ionic conductance other than that responsible for spike generation can modify bifurcation points and shift the bifurcation diagram and,thus,change neuronal excitability and adaptation.

Phase order in one-dimensional piecewise linear discontinuous map

The phase order in a one-dimensional(1 D) piecewise linear discontinuous map is investigated. The striking feature is that the phase order may be ordered or disordered in multi-band chaotic regimes, in contrast to the ordered phase in continuous systems. We carried out an analysis to illuminate the underlying mechanism for the emergence of the disordered phase in multi-band chaotic regimes, and proved that the phase order is sensitive to the density distribution of the trajectories of the attractors. The scaling behavior of the net direction phase at a transition point is observed. The analytical proof of this scaling relation is obtained. Both the numerical and analytical results show that the exponent is 1, which is controlled by the feature of the map independent on whether the system is continuous or discontinuous. It extends the universality of the scaling behavior to systems with discontinuity. The result in this work is important to understanding the property of chaotic motion in discontinuous systems.
