1. Efeitos causados pela modulação de parâmetros no mapa de hénon / Effects caused by the parameters modulation in the hénon map
The Hénon map is a paradigmatic two-dimensional discrete-time dynamical system, which was originally proposed as a model to the Poincaré section of the continuous-time Lorenz system, and has been extensively investigated in the last years. Apart from its theoretical importance, some practical applications are possible. As an example, it can be used to mode

2. Detection of multistability, bifurcations, and hysteresis in a large class of biological positive-feedback systems
It is becoming increasingly clear that bistability (or, more generally, multistability) is an important recurring theme in cell signaling. Bistability may be of particular relevance to biological systems that switch between discrete states, generate oscillatory responses, or “remember” transitory stimuli. Standard mathematical methods allow the detection

3. Noise in neural networks: thresholds, hysteresis, and neuromodulation of signal-to-noise.
We study a neural-network model including Gaussian noise, higher-order neuronal interactions, and neuromodulation. For a first-order network, there is a threshold in the noise level (phase transition) above which the network displays only disorganized behavior and critical slowing down near the noise threshold. The network can tolerate more noise if it has h

4. Complex-periodic spiral waves in confluent cardiac cell cultures induced by localized inhomogeneities
Spatiotemporal wave activities in excitable heart tissues have long been the subject of numerous studies because they underlie different forms of cardiac arrhythmias. In particular, understanding the dynamics and the instabilities of spiral waves have become very important because they can cause reentrant tachycardia and their subsequent transitions to fibri
