Abstract :
A method to study some neuronal functions, based on the use of the Feynman diagrams, employed in many-body theory, is reported. An equation obtained from the neuron cable theory is the basis for the method. The Green´s function for this equation is obtained under some simple boundary conditions. An excitatory signal, with different conditions concerning high and pulse duration, is employed as input signal. Different responses have been obtained
