Dynamical relaying can yield zero time lag neuronal synchrony despite long conduction delays

Abstract: Multielectrode recordings have revealed zero time lag synchronization among remote cerebral cortical areas. However, the axonal conduction delays among such distant regions can amount to several tens of milliseconds. It is still unclear which mechanism is giving rise to isochronous discharge of widely distributed neurons, despite such latencies. Here, we investigate the synchronization properties of a simple network motif and found that, even in the presence of large axonal conduction delays, distant neuronal … Show more

“…Nevertheless, most studies have assumed that all the interactions occur with the same time delay and, up to now, little is known about stabilizing UPOs and controlling the synchrony patterns in networks coupled with heterogeneous delays. For instance, the dynamics of an array of chaotic logistic maps coupled with random delay times [47], the effects of heterogeneous delays in the coupling of two excitable neural systems [48,49] or a neural network [50], and amplitude death in the Stuart-Landau system coupled with distributed delays [51][52][53] or periodically modulated delay [54] were investigated.…”

“…The interaction mechanism is bidirectional. This architecture was used by Vicente et al [27] and Gollo et al [28] to demonstrate the emergence of zero-lag synchronization mediated by dynamical relaying between NN populations. In our case, the output of each NM is converted into a firing rate (see equation (2.9)) impinging on a subpopulation of 2000 neurons within the NN.…”

“…In fact, if all three neuronal populations were described by NNs (or by NMs, for that matter) synchronization will also arise (see, for instance, the studies of Vicente et al [27] and Gollo et al [28] for the case of three coupled NNs leading to zero-lag synchronization). Neither do we claim that two brain oscillators can synchronize only through the mediation of a third (see, for instance, the study of David & Friston [12] for an example of synchronization between two coupled NMs).…”

“…Delay may enhance the coordination among the connected nodes leading to an enhancement of synchronization identifying underlying connection topology, which had been the main theme of a few recent studies, but observation of a D mechanism behind the cluster formation in delayed coupled networks is a new insight suggesting that delayinduced synchronization may lead to a completely different relation between functional clusters and topology, than relations observed for the undelayed evolution. Our study draws its significance in understanding synchronization in real world networks such as neural networks, where clusters are formed due to delayed interactions between neurons [23] and may be of D type [24]. An analysis presented for bipartite and periodic cases help in discerning a possible impact of τ on the coupled evolution in such systems.…”
