Stability Switches of A Neural Field Model: An Algebraic Study On The Parameters

In this paper, a special case for a delayed neural field model is considered. After constructing its characteristic equation a stability analysis is made. Using Routh-Hurwitz criterion, some conditions for characteristic equation are given for the stability of the system.
