Understanding Entanglement Through the Lens of Quantifiable Algebraic Structures: Application to Bird Navigation

Imtiyaz, S.; Rodrigues, S. (2026-01-01)

We propose a unified mathematical meta-framework for long-distance navigation in birds, based on a bundle-theoretic representation of multisensory integration within evolving combinatorial structures. Various information st...

Observing hidden neuronal states in experiments

Amakhin, Dmitry; Chizhov, Anton; Girier, Guillaume; Desroches, M.; Sieber, Jan; Rodrigues, S. (2025-12-08)

In this article we demonstrate a general protocol for constructing systematically experimental steady-state bifurcation diagrams for electrophysiologically active cells. We perform our experiments on entorhinal cortex neuron...

Complex excitability and “flipping" of granule cells: An experimental and computational study

Danielewicz, J.; Girier, Guillaume; Chizhov, Anton; Desroches, M.; Encinas, Juan Manuel; Rodrigues, S. (2026-02-02)

In response to prolonged depolarizing current steps, different classes of neurons display specific firing characteristics (i.e., excitability class), such as a regular train of action potentials with more or less adaptation,...

Growing order-heterogeneous simplicial complexes

Ding, Mengjun; Yu, Jia; Barros de Souza, D.; Rodrigues, S.; Desroches, M.; Li, Chunbo; Sun, Weiqiang (2026-01-26)

Complex systems are commonly modeled using graphs, where nodes represent entities and edges represent pairwise interactions. Yet, many real-world systems exhibit higher-order interactions that involve multiple entities simul...
