Qualitative investigation and simulation of ordinary differential equation models (34C60) Nonlinear oscillations and coupled oscillators for ordinary differential equations (34C15)

Abstract: In this note we discuss the usage of the Dirac $delta$ function in models of phase oscillators with pulsatile inputs. Many authors use a product of the delta function and the phase response curve in the right hand side of an ODE to describe the discontinuous phase dynamics in such systems. We point out that this notation has to be treated with care as it is ambiguous. We argue that the presumably most canonical interpretation does not lead to the intended behaviour in many cases.
