Long-range memory effects in a magnetized Hindmarsh-Rose neural network (Q2204479)

The article refers to the Hindmarsh-Rose model introduced in a paper of \textit{A. S. Etémé} et al. [Commun. Nonlinear Sci. Numer. Simul. 72, 432--440 (2019; Zbl 1464.92012)]. Since one intends to investigate the partnership between intrinsical memristive and boundary long-range couplings on modulated waves along a chain made of \(N\) identical neurons, long-range (LR) diffusive effects are added. The model under study has the form $$\dot{x_n}=y_n-ax^3_n +bx^2_n-z_n-{k_1}w(\phi_n)x_n+\sum_{j=1}^{J}{ D_j}(s)(x_{n+j}-2x_n+x_{n-j}),$$ $$\dot{y_n}=c-dx^2_n-ey_n,\dot{z_n}={\Omega^2}_0(x_n-x_e)-rz_n,$$ $$\dot{\phi}_n=x_n-k_2\phi_n+\phi_0.$$ By applying a multi-scaling approach, the system is reduced to a discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equation with the coefficients depending on some control parameters. One investigates analytically the modulation instability (MI) and different features of MI. The instability criterion and the critical amplitude expression are obtained. An extensive part of the article is devoted to numerical experiments on: MI and chaotic behavior of neural network, MI and neural network synchronicity, MI and characterization of chimera patterns. Comments and future trends can be found at the end of article.
