  2. Future interest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Future_interest

    The possibility of reverter can only follow a fee simple determinable. Example: "O grants Blackacre to A as long as A refrains from drinking alcohol." Analysis: If A never drinks after the grant (and never sells the property), then Blackacre will belong to A at O's death, and be distributed according to the rules of probate .

  3. Defeasible estate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defeasible_estate

    An attempt to create such an interest is construed as a fee simple subject to condition subsequent (see below), and a person who would have possibility of reverter at common law will instead have a right of entry. [1] A fee simple determinable does not violate the rule against perpetuities, since a possibility of reverter is not subject to the ...

  4. Reversion (law) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversion_(law)

    A reversion in property law is a future interest that is retained by the grantor after the conveyance of an estate of a lesser quantum than he has (such as the owner of a fee simple granting a life estate or a leasehold estate).

  5. Action potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_potential

    The currents flowing in due to an action potential spread out in both directions along the axon. [52] However, only the unfired part of the axon can respond with an action potential; the part that has just fired is unresponsive until the action potential is safely out of range and cannot restimulate that part.

  6. Rule against perpetuities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_against_perpetuities

    For example, the grant "For A so long as alcohol is not sold on the premises, then to B" would violate the rule as to B. The conveyance to B would be stricken, leaving "To A so long as alcohol is not sold on the premises." This would create a fee simple determinable in A, with a possibility of reverter in the grantor (or the grantor's heirs ...

  7. Neural backpropagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_backpropagation

    Neural backpropagation is the phenomenon in which, after the action potential of a neuron creates a voltage spike down the axon (normal propagation), another impulse is generated from the soma and propagates towards the apical portions of the dendritic arbor or dendrites (from which much of the original input current originated).

  8. Quantitative models of the action potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantitative_models_of_the...

    Figure FHN: To mimick the action potential, the FitzHugh–Nagumo model and its relatives use a function g(V) with negative differential resistance (a negative slope on the I vs. V plot). For comparison, a normal resistor would have a positive slope, by Ohm's law I = GV, where the conductance G is the inverse of resistance G=1/R.

  9. Neural accommodation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_accommodation

    During neuronal accommodation, the slowly rising depolarisation drives the activation and inactivation, as well as the potassium gates simultaneously and never evokes action potential. Failure to evoke action potential by ramp depolarisation of any strength had been a great puzzle until Hodgkin and Huxley created their physical model of action ...
