Multistability in spiking neuron models of delayed recurrent inhibitory loops.

abstract：:We simulate the inhibition of Ia-glutamatergic excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP) by preceding it with glycinergic recurrent (REN) and reciprocal (REC) inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs). The inhibition is evaluated in the presence of voltage-dependent conductances of sodium, delayed rectifier potassium,...
