From Sub- to Superthreshold Oscillations in Ensembles of Globally Coupled Excitable Systems — •Xaver Sailer1, Michael Zaks1, Alexander Neimann2 und Lutz Schimansky-Geier11Institut fuer Physik, Newtonstrasse 15, 10119 Berlin — 2Institute of Physics and Astronomy, Ohio University, Athens, Ohio

We investigate a globally coupled ensemble of excitable FitzHugh-Nagumo systems subject to Gaussian white noise. In a certain parameter regime we find for increasing noise intensity a transition from a stable fixed point to global oscillations. The transition is complex and we find different regimes exhibiting small amplitude oscillations, period doubling, chaos, and intermittent and non-intermittent spiking. We derive the dynamical system of the ensembles moment dynamics in the Gaussian approximation and calculate the Hopf bifurcation condition analytically.
