Abstract
- The chaotic spiking and intermittent chaotic bursting were observed from biological experiment on a neural pacemaker. The intermittent chaotic bursting manifested alternation between a phase of nearly period-3 bursting and another phase of irregular bursting, and exhibited a nonsmooth-like structure in the first return map of interspike interval (ISI) series. The chaotic spiking manifested a smooth structure. The intermittent chaotic bursting and spiking simulated in the Chay model were identified by the dissection of the fast-slow variables. The intermittent chaotic bursting manifested nonsmooth-like structures in the first return map of both ISI and slow variable, while spiking exhibited smooth structures. The intermittent chaotic bursting and spiking manifested different scale laws of the averaged length of periodic phase with respect to the changes of parameter value. The scale law of bursting was similar to those of both type V intermittent chaos generated in a nonsmooth map and type I in a smooth system, while that of spiking resembled type I more than type V. The results revealed the dynamics of intermittent chaotic firing patterns, the differences between the intermittent chaotic bursting and spiking patterns and the relationships to the smooth and nonsmooth-like characteristics, provided a deep understanding of intermittent chaotic firing patterns, and indicated different mechanisms of the adjustment of variables from slow to fast between bursting and spiking patterns.
