Generic excitable dynamics on a two-dimensional map

TL;DR: In this article, the basic implementation of distributed excitable networks using coupled maps lattices is described in one-and two-dimensional media with nearest-neighbor coupling, and the elementary dynamic that is analogous to that of neural elements, is analyzed using phase plane methods.
