Abstract: | We present a nonlinear field theory of the brain under realistic anatomical connectivity conditions describing the interaction between functional units within the brain. This macroscopic field theory is derived from the quasi-microscopic conversion properties of neural populations occurring at synapses and somas. Functional units are treated as inhomogeneities within a nonlinear neural tissue. |
