Abstract: | The stability characteristics and dynamical behavior of a system of mutually excitatory neurons in close spatial proximity
are investigated with a mathematical model. The model predicts the existence of uniform, intermediate levels of activity other
than those of no activity and maximal activity. The model also, yeilds a good explanation of data obtained from periglomerular
neurons in the olfactory bulb of the cat.
This paper is based on a dissertation submitted by the author to Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of
the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophyy.
