Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A simple mathematical model of living pacemaker neurons is proposed.The model has a unit circle limit cycle and radial isochrons,and the state point moves slowly in one region and fast in the remaining region;regions can correspond to the subthreshold activity and to the action potentials of pacemaker neurons, respectively.The global bifurcation structure when forced by periodic pulse trains was studied using one dimensional maps(PTC), two dimensional bifurcation diagrams,and skeletons involving stimulus period and intensity.The existence of both the slow and the fast dynamics has a critical influence on the global bifurcation structure of the oscillator when stimulated periodically.
