Neimark-Sacker bifurcation analysis for a discrete-time system of two neurons (Q448730): Difference between revisions

Summary: A class of discrete-time system modelling a network with two neurons is considered. First, we investigate the global stability of the given system. Next, we study the local stability by techniques developed by Kuznetsov to discrete-time systems. It is found that Neimark-Sacker bifurcation (or Hopf bifurcation for map) will occur when the bifurcation parameter exceeds a critical value. A formula determining the direction and stability of Neimark-Sacker bifurcation by applying normal form theory and center manifold theorem is given. Finally, some numerical simulations for justifying the theoretical results are also provided.
