Integrability of a Globally Coupled Complex Riccati Array: Quadratic Integrate-and-Fire Neurons, Phase Oscillators,
1Centre for Mathematical Science, Lund University, Sölvegatan 18, 22100, Lund, Sweden.
Abstract:
We present an exact dimensionality reduction for dynamics of an arbitrary array of globally coupled complex-valued Riccati equations. It generalizes the Watanabe-Strogatz theory [Integrability of a globally coupled oscillator array, Phys. Rev. Lett. 70, 2391 (1993).PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.70.2391] for sinusoidally coupled phase oscillators and seamlessly includes quadratic integrate-and-fire neurons as the real-valued special case. This simple formulation reshapes our understanding of a broad class of coupled systems-including a particular class of phase-amplitude oscillators-which newly fall under the category of integrable systems. Precise and rigorous analysis of complex Riccati arrays is now within reach, paving a way to a deeper understanding of emergent behavior of collective dynamics in coupled systems.

RLC Circuit as a Damped Oscillator
Consider a series RLC circuit. Here, the presence of resistance in the circuit leads to energy loss due to joule heating in the resistance. Therefore, the total electromagnetic energy in the circuit is no longer constant and decreases with time. Since the magnitude of charge, current, and potential difference continuously decreases, their oscillations are said to be damped. This is...
Linear Approximation in Frequency Domain
In contrast, nonlinear systems do not inherently possess these properties. However, for small deviations around an operating point, a nonlinear system can often be approximated as linear....
Integrator and Differentiator
An integrator within an op-amp circuit produces an output directly proportional to the integral of the input signal. This is achieved by replacing the feedback resistor in a typical inverting...
Propagation of Action Potentials
Neurons (nerve cells) have a resting membrane potential, with a slightly negative charge inside compared to outside. This is maintained by ion channels, such as sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) channels, which control the flow of ions. When a stimulus, like a touch or a signal from another neuron, triggers the neuron, sodium channels open, allowing sodium ions to...
