We propose a holographic correspondence between the action integral I describing the mechanics of a finite number of degrees of freedom in the bulk, and the entropy S of the boundary (a holographic screen) enclosing that ...

[EN] Hydrogels are polymeric networks capable of absorbing large amounts of water, without losing their three-dimensional structure, and they constitute a very favorable environment to house biomolecules and for biointeractions ...

[EN] We present a map of standard quantum mechanics onto a dual theory, that of the classical thermodynamics of irreversible processes. While no gravity is present in our construction, our map exhibits features that are ...
