Solar Turbulence in Earth's Global and Regional Temperature Anomalies

Description: This article presents a study of the influence of solar activity on the earth's temperature. In particular, the authors focus on the repercussion of the fluctuations of the solar irradiance on the temperature of the Northern and Southern hemispheres as well as on land and ocean regions.

Spontaneous Brain Activity as a Source of Ideal 1/f Noise

Description: In this article, the authors study the electroencephalogram (EEG) of 30 closed-eye subjects with a technique of analysis recently proposed to detect punctual events signaling rapid transitions between different metastable states.

Stromatolites: why do we care?

Description: Article discussing stromatolites. The authors apply the method of Diffusion Entropy (DE) to the study of stromatolites by means of a two-dimensional procedure that makes it possible for us to compare the DE analysis to the results of a compression method.

Sun-Climate Complexity Linking

Description: Article discussing sun-climate complexity linking and how this property is a consequence of the phenomenon of information transfer.

A Symmetric Approach Elucidates Multisensory Information Integration

Description: This article shows that the Borsuk-Ulam theorem applies also to multisensory integration: two environmental stimuli from different sensory modalities display similar features when mapped into cortical neurons.

Symmetries, Information and Monster Groups before and after the Big Bang

Description: This article discusses how the energetic loss caused by projection from higher to lower dimensions and by the Monster group’s non-abelian features is correlated with the present-day asymmetry in the thermodynamic arrow.

Towards a Neuronal Gauge Theory

Description: This article proposes that the brain (and other self-organised biological systems) can be characterised via the mathematical apparatus of a gauge theory.

Towards the thermodynamics of localization processes

Description: In this article, the authors study the entropy time evolution of a quantum mechanical model, which is frequently used as a prototype for Anderson's localization.

Towards the timely detection of toxicants

Description: Article discussing the problem of enhancing the sensitivity of biosensors to the influence of toxicants, with an entropy method of analysis, denoted as CASSANDRA, for the specific purpose of studying non-stationary time series.

Trajectory versus probability density entropy

Description: In this article, the authors show that the widely accepted conviction that a connection can be established between the probability density entropy and the Kolmogorov-Sinai (KS) entropy is questionable.

Vortex Dynamics in Evolutive Flows: A Weakly Chaotic Phenomenon

Description: In this article, the authors make use of a wavelet method to extract, from experimental velocity signals obtained in an evolutive flow, the dominating velocity components generated by vortex dynamics.
