The recursive equations predict the activity phase of the model neuron and the biological PY neurons in a reasonable accuracy: (a) The time traces of two biological PY neurons when P is varied by varying Tin (Tact is fixed). The solid bars denote the active duration of the pacemaker input. The phase-period plot when P is varied by varying Tin and keeping Tact fixed (b); by varying Tin and Tact but keeping the duty cycle fixed (c); by varying Tact and keeping Tin fixed (d). In (b–d), the solid curve shows the phase calculated from Equations (16–19); the filled squares show the phase of the 3-variable model; the two dashed curves show the burst phase of the biological PY neurons. Give parameters for the simulation.
