the soma. At junction j < J we denote by ðɪ and 6j the branch indices of the two
children and by ðɜ the branch index of the mother. Continuity of the potential at
each junction requires

v_b^_b1_j,t) = v_b^_b2,t) = υ_b3(O,t), j = l,...,J-l         (2.19)

while current balance there requires

⅛(4^ι)¾⅝ι(4^ι^) + ⅛(4²)⅛⅝²(4²>0 = ⅛(0)¾v_b3(0√), j = 1,..., J- 1.

The D dendrites join at the soma and associated branch indices are b^d_h d = 1,..., D.
Continuity of the potential at the soma then reads

u_bι(4ι,t) = ¾₅‰_j,t), d = 2,...,D.               (2.21)

We denote this common value by υ_σ(t) and note that current balance there requires
