Abstract

To study the effect of electromagnetic induction on the spatiotemporal dynamic behavior of neural networks, in this paper, we have mainly studied both the synchronization behavior and the evolution of chimera states (CS) in coupled neural networks. To do this, a multilayer memristive neural network was constructed by selecting the Hindmarsh–Rose neurons as the network nodes, and the effect of electromagnetic induction is introduced by using the cubic flux-controlled memristive model as synapse. For simplicity, the following coupling scheme is adopted: only the coupling connections for the neurons between different layers are considered with memristive synapses, while those neurons in each layer are still bidirectional coupled with the classical electrical synapses. It is found that, by adjusting the coupled strength of electrical synapses and the parameters of memristive synapses, the coexistence behavior of coherent and incoherent states, i.e., the CS, could appear in each layer. It is interesting that the CS are also found in inter-layer memristive synapse network. Furthermore, we have discussed the synchronization behavior in this multilayer memristive neural network, one can find when the whole multilayer network is in a synchronization state, not only the spatiotemporal consistency of the CS in each layer neural networks is observed, but also the memductance of all memristive synapses is completely synchronized. Our results suggest that the electromagnetic induction may play an important role in regulating the dynamic behavior of neural networks, and the introduction of memristive synapse into the biological neural network will provide useful clues for revealing the memory behavior of the neural system in human brain.
