Abstract

The work studies the spatiotemporal activity propagation in a two-dimensional spatial system involving a finite transmission speed. We derive a numerical scheme in detail to integrate the corresponding evolution equation and validate the derived algorithm by a study of a spatially periodic system. Finally, the work demonstrates numerically transmission delay-induced breathers subjected to anisotropic external input.
