Title: Complete classification and stability of equilibria in a delayed ring network Authors: Xuwen Lu (Hunan Univ., Changsha, China) Shangjiang Guo (Hunan Univ., Changsha, China) Abstract: In this paper, we consider a neural network model consisting of four neurons with delayed self and nearest-neighbor connections. We provide a full classification of all equilibria and their stability in the connection weighter parameter space. Such a classification is essential for the description of spatio-temporal patterns of the model system and for the applications to dynamic memory storage and retrieval. Submitted January 25, 2008.
