The exact multiplicity of fields in DG units is irrelevant.

<p>Information about position plotted versus the number of CA3 units, from which it is decoded, with the mean number of fields in the input to each CA3 unit constant at the value . Different lines correspond to a different mean number of fields per DG input units, balanced by different mean number of input units per CA3 unit. Inset: analytical estimate of the information per CA3 unit, from numerically integrating Eq. 9.
