A theory for self-sustained balanced states in absence of strong external currents
Fig 9
Lyapunov characterization of the routes to chaos.
(A–D) Main Figures: Maximal LE as function of J0 with I0 = 0. After the fixed point loses stability at
a transition regime emerges -shaded area- where, depending on the network realization different routes to chaos can be identified. In the inset of each figure we show the first and second largest LEs calculated with a higher resolution in J0 with the aim of characterizing the transition region towards chaos.
