We study the existence and stability of traveling waves and pulses in a one-dimensional network of integrate-and-"re neuronswith synaptic coupling. This provides a simple model of excitable neural tissue. We "rst derive a self-consistency condition for the existence of traveling waves, which generates a dispersion relation between velocity and wavelength. We use this to investigate how wave-propagation dependson variousparametersthat characterize neuronal interactions such as synaptic and axonal delays, and the passive membrane proper- ties of dendritic cables. We also establish that excitable networks support the propagation of solitary pulses in the long-wavelength limit. We then derive a general condition for the (local) asymptotic stability of traveling wavesin termsof the characteris tic equation of the lin- earized "ring time map, which takesthe form of an integro-di !erence equation of in"nite order. We use this to analyze the stability of solitary pulses in the long-wavelength limit. Solitary wave solutions are shown to come in pairs with the faster (slower) solution stable (unstable) in the case of zero axonal delays; for non-zero delays and fast synapses the stable wave can itself destabilize via a Hopf bifurcation.
