We consider a single theta neuron with delayed self-feedback in the form of a Dirac delta function in time. Because the dynamics of a theta neuron on its own can be solved explicitly -- it is either excitable or shows self-pulsations -- we are able to derive algebraic expressions for existence and stability of the periodic solutions that arise in the presence of feedback. These periodic solutions are characterized by one or more equally spaced pulses per delay interval, and there is an increasing amount of multistability with increasing delay time. We present a complete description of where these self-sustained oscillations can be found in parameter space; in particular, we derive explicit expressions for the loci of their saddle-node bifurcations. We conclude that the theta neuron with delayed self-feedback emerges as a prototypical model: it provides an analytical basis for understanding pulsating dynamics observed in other excitable systems subject to delayed self-coupling. |
