In this paper a new tool, i.e. the double exponential transform, is introduced for characterizing a non-linear dynamic circuit directly on the basis of its elements. The resulting characterization aims to improve the computational cost connected with the analysis and to add flexibility to the identi

Abstract
Motivated by a neurobiological problem, we discuss a class of diffusion problems on a network. The celebrated Rall lumped soma model for the spread of electrical potential in a dendritical tree prescribes that the common cable equation must be coupled with particular dynamic conditions in some nodes (the cell bodies, or somata). We discuss the extension of this model to the case of a whole network of neurons, where the ramification nodes can be either active (with excitatory timeβdependent boundary conditions) or passive (where no dynamics take place, i.e. only Kirchhoff laws are imposed). While wellβposedness of the system has already been obtained in previous works, using abstract tools based on variational methods and semigroup theory we are able to prove several qualitative properties, including asymptotic behaviour, regularity of solutions, and monotonicity of the semigroups in dependence on the physical coefficients.
