'Traveling wave'' solutions of Fitzhugh model with cross-diffusion by F. Berezovskaya, Erika Camacho, Stephen Wirkus, Georgy Karev

“…The FitzHugh-Nagumo equations have been used as a caricatureof the Hodgkin-Huxley equations of neuron FIring and to capture, qualitatively,the general properties of an excitable membrane. In this paper, we utilizea modified version of the FitzHugh-Nagumo equations to model the spatialpropagation of neuron firing; we assume that this propagation is (at least,partially) caused by the cross-diffusion connection between the potential andrecovery variables. …”
