Review text

The mechanism of diffusion and concentration of neural activity is one of the basic laws of neuronal interaction in the cerebral cortex. The evidence shows that the lateral connections between neurons in the cerebral neocortex take the following structure: the short-range lateral connections are excitatory while the long-range ones are inhibitory. This note shows that the structure of connections is able both to diffuse and to concentrate information; that is, the short-range excitatory connections provide the pathways for the diffusional process of the activity, and the long-range inhibitory connections provide the pathways for the concentrative process of the activity. Both diffusion and concentration are coexistent.
