Neuron activity presents two timescales, a fast one related to action-potential spiking, and a slow timescale in which bursting takes place. Bursting activity in neuron ensembles can be synchronized, meaning the adjustment of the bursting phases due to coupling. We investigated bursting...

Numerical simulations of coupled map lattices with non-local interactions (i.e., the coupling of a given map occurs with all lattice sites) often involve a large computer time if the lattice size is too large. In order to study dynamical effects which depend on the lattice size we considered...

We used numerical diagnostics to quantify spatial disorder, and its relation with temporal chaos, for a one-dimensional chain of coupled logistic maps with a coupling strength which varies with the lattice distance in a power-law fashion. The main tool is spatial return plots, whose properties...
