We define a graph network to be a coupled cell network where there are only one type of cell and one type of symmetric coupling between the cells. For a difference-coupled vector field on a graph network system, all the cells have the same internal dynamics, and the coupling between cells is identical, symmetric, and depends only on the difference of the states of the interacting cells. We define four nested sets of difference-coupled vector fields by adding further restrictions on the internal dynamics and the coupling functions. These restrictions require that these functions preserve zero or are odd or linear. We characterize the synchrony and anti-synchrony subspaces with respect to these four subsets of admissible vector fields. Synchrony and anti-synchrony subspaces are determined by partitions and matched partitions of the cells that satisfy certain balance conditions. We compute the lattice of synchrony and anti-synchrony subspaces for several graph networks. We also apply our theory to systems of coupled van der Pol oscillators.

For a regular coupled cell network, synchrony subspaces are the polydiagonal subspaces that are invariant under the network adjacency matrix. The complete lattice of synchrony subspaces of an $n$-cell regular network can be seen as an intersection of
the partition lattice of $n$ elements and a lattice of invariant subspaces of the associated adjacency matrix. We assign integer tuples with synchrony subspaces, and use them for identifying equivalent synchrony subspaces to be merged. Based on this equivalence, the initial lattice of synchrony subspaces can be reduced to a lattice of synchrony subspaces which corresponds to a simple eigenvalue case discussed in our previous work. The result is a reduced lattice of synchrony subspaces, which affords a well-defined non-negative integer index that leads to bifurcation analysis in regular coupled cell networks.
Spike time response curves (STRCs) are used to study the influence of synaptic stimuli on the firing times of a neuron oscillator without the assumption of weak coupling. They allow us to approximate the dynamics of synchronous state in networks of n
eurons through a discrete map. Linearization about the fixed point of the discrete map can then be used to predict the stability of patterns of synchrony in the network. General theory for taking into account the contribution from higher order STRC terms, in the approximation of the discrete map for coupled neuronal oscillators in synchrony is still lacking. Here we present a general framework to account for higher order STRC corrections in the approximation of discrete map to determine the domain of 1:1 phase locking state in the network of two interacting neurons. We begin by demonstrating that the effect of synaptic stimuli through a shunting synapse to a neuron firing in the gamma frequency band (20-80 Hz) last for three consecutive firing cycles. We then show that the discrete map derived by taking into account the higher order STRC contributions is successfully able predict the domain of synchronous 1:1 phase locked state in a network of two heterogeneous interneurons coupled through a shunting synapse.
An imperative condition for the functioning of a power-grid network is that its power generators remain synchronized. Disturbances can prompt desynchronization, which is a process that has been involved in large power outages. Here we derive a condit
ion under which the desired synchronous state of a power grid is stable, and use this condition to identify tunable parameters of the generators that are determinants of spontaneous synchronization. Our analysis gives rise to an approach to specify parameter assignments that can enhance synchronization of any given network, which we demonstrate for a selection of both test systems and real power grids. Because our results concern spontaneous synchronization, they are relevant both for reducing dependence on conventional control devices, thus offering an additional layer of protection given that most power outages involve equipment or operational errors, and for contributing to the development of smart grids that can recover from failures in real time.
Living creatures exhibit a remarkable diversity of locomotion mechanisms, evolving structures specialised for interacting with their environment. In the vast majority of cases, locomotor behaviours such as flying, crawling, and running, are orchestra
ted by nervous systems. Surprisingly, microorganisms can enact analogous movement gaits for swimming using multiple, fast-moving cellular protrusions called cilia and flagella. Here, I demonstrate intermittency, reversible rhythmogenesis, and gait mechanosensitivity in algal flagella, to reveal the active nature of locomotor patterning. In addition to maintaining free-swimming gaits, I show that the algal flagellar apparatus functions as a central pattern generator which encodes the beating of each flagellum in a network in a distinguishable manner. The latter provides a novel symmetry-breaking mechanism for cell reorientation. These findings imply that the capacity to generate and coordinate complex locomotor patterns does not require neural circuitry but rather the minimal ingredients are present in simple unicellular organisms.
Recordings from area V4 of monkeys have revealed that when the focus of attention is on a visual stimulus within the receptive field of a cortical neuron, two distinct changes can occur: The firing rate of the neuron can change and there can be an in
crease in the coherence between spikes and the local field potential in the gamma-frequency range (30-50 Hz). The hypothesis explored here is that these observed effects of attention could be a consequence of changes in the synchrony of local interneuron networks. We performed computer simulations of a Hodgkin-Huxley type neuron driven by a constant depolarizing current, I, representing visual stimulation and a modulatory inhibitory input representing the effects of attention via local interneuron networks. We observed that the neurons firing rate and the coherence of its output spike train with the synaptic inputs was modulated by the degree of synchrony of the inhibitory inputs. The model suggest that the observed changes in firing rate and coherence of neurons in the visual cortex could be controlled by top-down inputs that regulated the coherence in the activity of a local inhibitory network discharging at gamma frequencies.
