Vladmir, I think a very important issue, ist the one about how much you can multiplex the number of cell assemblies a neuron is in. If X is the total number of neurons, and M is the number of neurons in a cell assembly, as in one of your earlier posts, and you assume even distribution of connections, the total number of cell assemblies would be X/M. But with multiplexing it might be substantially higher. I have read or heard multiple people say the number can be much higher, but I have heard no one put a number or mathematical formula on exactly how much higher. Do you know anything about that?
