Global bifurcations in a dynamical model of recurrent neural networks
The dynamical behaviour of a continuous time recurrent neural network model with a special weight matrix is studied. The network contains several identical excitatory neurons and a single inhibitory one. This special construction enables us to reduce the dimension of the system and then fully characterize the local and global codimension-one bifurcations. It is shown that besides saddle-node and Andronov-Hopf bifurcations, homoclinic and cycle fold bifurcations may occur. These bifurcation curves...
