Abstract

We consider the FitzHugh-Nagumo system equipped with boundary condition of Dirichlet type on some two/three-dimensional domains. This system describes the signal transmission across the axonal membrane in neurophysiology. It is a semilinear parabolic PDE for the voltage variable coupled with a first-order ODE of space-time type for the recovery variable. We prove that there exists a finite-dimensional global manifold in the case of the fast recovery variable. Since the manifold is uniformly attracting, it gives geometric insight into the global long-time dynamics of the solutions. The proof is based on an abstract invariant manifold theorem for dynamical systems on a Banach space.
