Abstract
We prove results that enable realization of heteroclinic networks in coupled homogeneous and heterogeneous systems of identical cells. We also consider various models for network dynamics, which allow variation in the number of inputs to identical cells.

Notes
We allow either asymmetric or symmetric inputs.
Strictly speaking, unique if \(j_i:\mathbf {k_i}\rightarrow \varvec{\ell }\) is injective, \(i \in \varvec{\ell }\).
We do not discuss the issue of spike amplification that can occur in pyramidal neurons in the hypo-campus Fricker and Miles (2000)—this can be modelled using a non-autonomous version of additive input structure that depends on relative timings.
We review the methods used in Aguiar et al. (2011) when we address the general case.
