Abstract

A coupled cell network is an inflation of if the dynamics of is embedded in as a quotient network. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a strongly connected inflation of a strongly connected network. We provide a simple algorithm for the construction of a strongly connected inflation as a sequence of simple inflations.
