Abstract

Description

We study a simple map as a minimal model of excitable cells. The map has two fast variables which mimic the behavior of class I neurons, undergoing a sub-critical Hopf bifurcation. Adding a third slow variable allows the system to present bursts and other interesting biological behaviors. Bifurcation lines which locate the excitability region are obtained for different planes in parameter space.
