Has anyone looked for mutexes in cortical columns? How would one go about this?

From my superficial knowledge I would assume that mutex-like synchronization is performed by the mechanisms that control phase and frequency of neural oscillation, employing effects like resonance, harmonics, interference and delayed feedback of activity waves between columns.

The exact mechanisms seem still unknown, but you are probably familiar with the tons of papers about phase-amplitude- and phase-phase coupling, especially theta–gamma coupling that provide some details, e.g: https://academic.oup.com/cercor/article/26/9/3744/2389108 … https://elifesciences.org/articles/20515 http://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005180 …

This seems to go towards an explanation for binding, but not for mutexes, where you bind the same feature several times, but must ensure that only one instance is promoting activation at a time.
