Bifurcation analysis of a fractional-order Pinsky-Rinzel model (2110.08582v1)

Abstract: Abstract The present work describes a new fractional-order system of a two-compartment CA3 hippocampal pyramidal cell, which is known as Pinsky-Rinzel model with Caputo fractional derivative. Firstly, The transient of the solutions is investigated. Then based on the bifurcation diagrams, we study the general behavior of the system. In this case, fractional derivative order and currents injection, are taken as bifurcation parameters. Chaotic regions are obtained for different values of the fractional derivative order and different injection currents. Finally, a numerical approach is introduced to study the stability of the system under certain conditions. The obtained results can be considered as help to control relevant diseases caused by maximal injection currents abnormality.
