Abstract

Buchholtz et al. constructed a detailed conductance-based model of the LP cell of the stomatogastric ganglion of crustacea based upon the experimental work of Golowasch. Their model incorporated seven ionic currents and had 13 dynamical variables. We have produced a simplification of this model that has a seven-dimensional phase space by using the method of equivalent potentials, suggested by Abbott and Kepler, to combine several dynamical variables with similar time scales. Analysis of the dynamics of the reference and reduced model reveals similar bifurcation diagrams and similar dynamical behavior of the individual ionic currents.
