In the context of multi-agent systems of binary interacting particles, a kinetic model for action potential dynamics on a neural network is proposed, accounting for heterogeneity in the neuron-to-neuron connections, as well as in the brain structure. Two levels of description are coupled: in a single area, pairwise neuron interactions for the exchange of membrane potential are statistically described; among different areas, a graph description of the brain network topology is included. Equilibria of the kinetic and macroscopic settings are determined and numerical simulations of the system dynamics are performed with the aim of studying the influence of the network heterogeneities on the membrane potential propagation and synchronization.

Abstract
In the context of multi-agent systems of binary interacting particles, a kinetic model for action potential dynamics on a neural network is proposed, accounting for heterogeneity in the neuron-to-neuron connections, as well as in the brain structure. Two levels of description are coupled: in a single area, pairwise neuron interactions for the exchange of membrane potential are statistically described; among different areas, a graph description of the brain network topology is included. Equilibria of the kinetic and macroscopic settings are determined and numerical simulations of the system dynamics are performed with the aim of studying the influence of the network heterogeneities on the membrane potential propagation and synchronization.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
