Degree assortativity refers to the increased or decreased probability of connecting two neurons based on their in- or out-degrees, relative to what would be expected by chance. We investigate the effects of such assortativity in a network of theta neurons. The Ott/Antonsen ansatz is used to derive equations for the expected state of each neuron, and these equations are then coarse-grained in degree space. We generate families of effective connectivity matrices parametrised by assortativity coefficient and use SVD decompositions of these to efficiently perform numerical bifurcation analysis of the coarse-grained equations. We find that of the four possible types of degree assortativity, two have no effect on the networks' dynamics, while the other two can have a significant effect.

Keywords: Neuronal networks, degree assortativity, theta neurons, Ott/Antonsen, bifurcation.

Figure 1.  Assortativity in undirected and directed networks. An undirected network (left column) is assortative if high degree nodes are more likely to be connected to high degree nodes, and low to low, than by chance (top left). Such a network is disassortative if the opposite occurs (bottom left). In directed networks (right column) there are four possible kinds of assortativity. The probability of a connection (red) is thus influenced by the number of red shaded links of the sending (left) and receiving (right) node

Higher densities of multi-edges were obtained, but assortativities exceeded the target neutral values of $ \pm 0.005 $. Values shown are from simulations of (1)-(2) after initial transients decay (i.e., time t $ \geq $ 40).

Curves in Figure 8 can be understood as vertical slices through the respective plot at $ r = 0,\pm 0.2 $. See text for explanation of labels">Figure 9.  Continuation of bifurcations seen in upper panels of Fig. 8. Solid black lines indicate saddle-node bifurcations, dashed blue is a Hopf bifurcation and dashed red a homoclinic bifurcation. Curves in Figure 8 can be understood as vertical slices through the respective plot at $ r = 0,\pm 0.2 $. See text for explanation of labels

Figure 10.  Permutation method initial matrices illustration. Top: $ A^{(0)} $ showing arrangement of edge entries (all solo connections: $ \rho_{m}^{+} = 0 $) for each row aligned left where row sums add up to $ k_{in} $. If multi-edges are desired, we simply distribute them in the rows of $ A^{(0)} $ satisfying the proportion, $ \rho_{m}^{+} = 0 $ and the row sum. Bottom: permutation of rows in $ A^{(0)} $ into this example $ A^{(1)} $. Note row sums still add up to $ k_{in} $, with column sums adding to a current $ k_{out}^{(1)} $ — likely violating the designated $ k_{out} $
