Abstract
Pulse-coupled spiking neural networks are a powerful tool to gain mechanistic insights into how neurons self-organize to produce coherent collective behavior. These networks use simple spiking neuron models, such as the θ-neuron or the quadratic integrate-and-fire (QIF) neuron, that replicate the essential features of real neural dynamics. Interactions between neurons are modeled with infinitely narrow pulses, or spikes, rather than the more complex dynamics of real synapses. To make these networks biologically more plausible, it has been proposed that they must also account for the finite width of the pulses, which can have a significant impact on the network dynamics. However, the derivation and interpretation of these pulses are contradictory, and the impact of the pulse shape on the network dynamics is largely unexplored. Here, I take a comprehensive approach to pulse coupling in networks of QIF and θ-neurons. I argue that narrow pulses activate voltage-dependent synaptic conductances and show how to implement them in QIF neurons such that their effect can last through the phase after the spike. Using an exact low-dimensional description for networks of globally coupled spiking neurons, I prove for instantaneous interactions that collective oscillations emerge due to an effective coupling through the mean voltage. I analyze the impact of the pulse shape by means of a family of smooth pulse functions with arbitrary finite width and symmetric or asymmetric shapes. For symmetric pulses, the resulting voltage coupling is not very effective in synchronizing neurons, but pulses that are slightly skewed to the phase after the spike readily generate collective oscillations. The results unveil a voltage-dependent spike synchronization mechanism at the heart of emergent collective behavior, which is facilitated by pulses of finite width and complementary to traditional synaptic transmission in spiking neuron networks.

Abstract
We investigate the interplay of an external forcing and an adaptive network, whose connection weights coevolve with the dynamical states of the phase oscillators. In particular, we consider the Hebbian and anti-Hebbian adaptation mechanisms for the evolution of the connection weights. The Hebbian adaptation manifests several interesting partially synchronized states, such as phase and frequency clusters, bump state, bump frequency phase clusters, and forced entrained clusters, in addition to the completely synchronized and forced entrained states. Anti-Hebbian adaptation facilitates the manifestation of the itinerant chimera characterized by randomly evolving coherent and incoherent domains along with some of the aforementioned dynamical states induced by the Hebbian adaptation. We introduce three distinct measures for the strength of incoherence based on the local standard deviations of the time-averaged frequency and the instantaneous phase of each oscillator, and the time-averaged mean frequency for each bin to corroborate the distinct dynamical states and to demarcate the two parameter phase diagrams. We also arrive at the existence and stability conditions for the forced entrained state using the linear stability analysis, which is found to be consistent with the simulation results.

Abstract
We consider a next generation neural field model which describes the dynamics of a network of theta neurons on a ring. For some parameters the network supports stable time-periodic solutions. Using the fact that the dynamics at each spatial location are described by a complex-valued Riccati equation we derive a self-consistency equation that such periodic solutions must satisfy. We determine the stability of these solutions, and present numerical results to illustrate the usefulness of this technique. The generality of this approach is demonstrated through its application to several other systems involving delays, two-population architecture and networks of Winfree oscillators.

Abstract
A twisted state is an important yet simple form of collective dynamics in an oscillatory medium. Here we describe a nontrivial type of twisted state in a system of nonlocally coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators. The nontrivial twisted state (NTS) is a coherent traveling wave characterized by inhomogeneous profiles of amplitudes and phase gradients, which can be assigned a winding number. To further investigate its properties, several methods are employed. We perform a linear stability analysis in the continuum limit and compare the results with Lyapunov exponents obtained in a finite-size system. The determination of covariant Lyapunov vectors allows us to identify collective modes. Furthermore, we show that the NTS is robust to small heterogeneities in the natural frequencies and present a bifurcation analysis revealing that NTSs are born or annihilated in a saddle-node bifurcation and change their stability in Hopf bifurcations. We observe stable NTSs with winding number 1 and 2. The latter can lose stability in a supercritical Hopf bifurcation, leading to a modulated 2-NTS.

Abstract
We disclose a new class of patterns, called patched patterns, in arrays of non-locally coupled excitable units with attractive and repulsive interactions. The self-organization process involves the formation of two types of patches, majority and minority ones, characterized by uniform average spiking frequencies. Patched patterns may be temporally periodic, quasiperiodic, or chaotic, whereby chaotic patterns may further develop interfaces comprised of units with average frequencies in between those of majority and minority patches. Using chaos and bifurcation theory, we demonstrate that chaos typically emerges via a torus breakup and identify the secondary bifurcation that gives rise to chaotic interfaces. It is shown that the maximal Lyapunov exponent of chaotic patched patterns does not decay, but rather converges to a finite value with system size. Patched patterns with a smaller wavenumber may exhibit diffusive motion of chaotic interfaces, similar to that of the incoherent part of chimeras.

Abstract
Chimeras occur in networks of coupled oscillators and are characterized by the coexistence of synchronous and asynchronous groups of oscillators in different parts of the network. We consider a network of nonlocally coupled phase oscillators on an annular domain. The Ott/Antonsen ansatz is used to derive a continuum level description of the oscillators' expected dynamics in terms of a complex-valued order parameter. The equations for this order parameter are numerically analyzed in order to investigate solutions with the same symmetry as the domain and chimeras which are analogous to the "multi-headed" chimeras observed on one-dimensional domains. Such solutions are stable only for domains with widths that are neither too large nor too small. We also study rotating waves with different winding numbers, which are similar to spiral wave chimeras seen in two-dimensional domains. We determine ranges of parameters, such as the size of the domain for which such solutions exist and are stable, and the bifurcations by which they lose stability. All of these bifurcations appear subcritical.

Abstract
We consider an adaptive network, whose connection weights coevolve in congruence with the dynamical states of the local nodes that are under the influence of an external stimulus. The adaptive dynamical system mimics the adaptive synaptic connections common in neuronal networks. The adaptive network under external forcing displays exotic dynamical states such as itinerant chimeras whose population density of coherent and incoherent domains coevolves with the synaptic connection, bump states, and bump frequency cluster states, which do not exist in adaptive networks without forcing. In addition, the adaptive network also exhibits partial synchronization patterns such as phase and frequency clusters, forced entrained, and incoherent states. We introduce two measures for the strength of incoherence based on the standard deviation of the temporally averaged (mean) frequency and on the mean frequency to classify the emergent dynamical states as well as their transitions. We provide a two-parameter phase diagram showing the wealth of dynamical states. We additionally deduce the stability condition for the frequency-entrained state. We use the paradigmatic Kuramoto model of phase oscillators, which is a simple generic model that has been widely employed in unraveling a plethora of cooperative phenomena in natural and man-made systems.

Abstract
Self-organized coherence-incoherence patterns, called chimera states, have first been reported in systems of Kuramoto oscillators. For coupled excitable units, similar patterns where coherent units are at rest are called bump states. Here, we study bumps in an array of active rotators coupled by nonlocal attraction and global repulsion. We demonstrate how they can emerge in a supercritical scenario from completely coherent Turing patterns: a single incoherent unit appears in a homoclinic bifurcation, undergoing subsequent transitions to quasiperiodic and chaotic behavior, which eventually transforms into extensive chaos with many incoherent units. We present different types of transitions and explain the formation of coherence-incoherence patterns according to the classical paradigm of short-range activation and long-range inhibition.

Abstract
A "bump" refers to a group of active neurons surrounded by quiescent ones while a "chimera" refers to a pattern in a network in which some oscillators are synchronized while the remainder are asynchronous. Both types of patterns have been studied intensively but are sometimes conflated due to their similar appearance and existence in similar types of networks. Here, we numerically study a hybrid system that linearly interpolates between a network of theta neurons that supports a bump at one extreme and a network of phase oscillators that supports a chimera at the other extreme. Using the Ott/Antonsen ansatz, we derive the equation describing the hybrid network in the limit of an infinite number of oscillators and perform bifurcation analysis on this equation. We find that neither the bump nor chimera persists over the whole range of parameters, and the hybrid system shows a variety of other states such as spatiotemporal chaos, traveling waves, and modulated traveling waves.

Abstract
We consider a two-dimensional array of heterogeneous nonlocally coupled phase oscillators on a flat torus and study the bound states of two counter-rotating spiral chimeras, shortly two-core spiral chimeras, observed in this system. In contrast to other known spiral chimeras with motionless incoherent cores, the two-core spiral chimeras typically show a drift motion. Due to this drift, their incoherent cores become spatially modulated and develop specific fingerprint patterns of varying synchrony levels. In the continuum limit of infinitely many oscillators, the two-core spiral chimeras can be studied using the Ott-Antonsen equation. Numerical analysis of this equation allows us to reveal the stability region of different spiral chimeras, which we group into three main classes-symmetric, asymmetric, and meandering spiral chimeras.

Abstract
We develop a circular cumulant representation for the recurrent network of quadratic integrate-and-fire neurons subject to noise. The synaptic coupling is global or macroscopically equivalent to it. We assume a Lorentzian distribution of the parameter controlling whether the isolated individual neuron is periodically spiking or excitable. For the infinite chain of circular cumulant equations, a hierarchy of smallness is identified; on the basis of it, we truncate the chain and suggest several two-cumulant neural mass models. These models allow one to go beyond the Ott-Antonsen Ansatz and describe the effect of noise on hysteretic transitions between macroscopic regimes of a population with inhibitory coupling. The accuracy of two-cumulant models is analyzed in detail.

Abstract
Reduction of collective dynamics of large heterogeneous populations to low-dimensional mean-field models is an important task of modern theoretical neuroscience. Such models can be derived from microscopic equations, for example with the help of Ott-Antonsen theory. An often used assumption of the Lorentzian distribution of the unit parameters makes the reduction especially efficient. However, the Lorentzian distribution is often implausible as having undefined moments, and the collective behavior of populations with other distributions needs to be studied. In the present Letter we propose a method which allows efficient reduction for an arbitrary distribution and show how it performs for the Gaussian distribution. We show that a reduced system for several macroscopic complex variables provides an accurate description of a population of thousands of neurons. Using this reduction technique we demonstrate that the population dynamics depends significantly on the form of its parameter distribution. In particular, the dynamics of populations with Lorentzian and Gaussian distributions with the same center and width differ drastically.

Abstract
Many biological and neural systems can be seen as networks of interacting periodic processes. Importantly, their functionality, i.e., whether these networks can perform their function or not, depends on the emerging collective dynamics of the network. Synchrony of oscillations is one of the most prominent examples of such collective behavior and has been associated both with function and dysfunction. Understanding how network structure and interactions, as well as the microscopic properties of individual units, shape the emerging collective dynamics is critical to find factors that lead to malfunction. However, many biological systems such as the brain consist of a large number of dynamical units. Hence, their analysis has either relied on simplified heuristic models on a coarse scale, or the analysis comes at a huge computational cost. Here we review recently introduced approaches, known as the Ott-Antonsen and Watanabe-Strogatz reductions, allowing one to simplify the analysis by bridging small and large scales. Thus, reduced model equations are obtained that exactly describe the collective dynamics for each subpopulation in the oscillator network via few collective variables only. The resulting equations are next-generation models: Rather than being heuristic, they exactly link microscopic and macroscopic descriptions and therefore accurately capture microscopic properties of the underlying system. At the same time, they are sufficiently simple to analyze without great computational effort. In the last decade, these reduction methods have become instrumental in understanding how network structure and interactions shape the collective dynamics and the emergence of synchrony. We review this progress based on concrete examples and outline possible limitations. Finally, we discuss how linking the reduced models with experimental data can guide the way towards the development of new treatment approaches, for example, for neurological disease.
