GEOMETRIC ENTROPIES AND THEIR HAMILTONIAN FLOWS

Geometric entropies and their Hamiltonian flows

Abstract In holographic theories, the Hubeny-Rangamani-Takayanagi (HRT) area operator plays a key role in our understanding of the emergence of semiclassical Einstein-Hilbert gravity.When higher derivative corrections are included, the role of the area is instead played by a more general functional known as the geometric entropy.It is thus of inter

Interferon alpha inducible protein 6 is a negative regulator of innate immune responses by modulating RIG-I activation

Interferons (IFNs), IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs), and inflammatory cytokines mediate innate immune responses, and are essential to establish an antiviral response.Within the innate immune responses, retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) is a key sensor of virus infections, mediating the transcriptional induction of IFNs and inflammatory proteins.Ne

CPLP: the first twenty-five years

The decision by Conjuntura Austral to dedicate a special issue to the 25th anniversary of the establishment of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP) is to be commended.The uniqueness of the organization justifies a timely review of a small sample of its activities to date.Created in 1996, the CPLP adopted three main vectors MAGNESIU
