摘要：

Perturbation methods are used to solve the eigenvalue problem for cortical pattern formation in the presence of long-range neural connections. Such connections have a crystallinelike structure that breaks Euclidean symmetry to the discrete symmetry of a planar lattice group. Conditions for marginal stability are derived with the associated eigenmodes identified as Bloch waves.
