The multidimensional brain

A Tozzi - Physics of Life Reviews, 2019 - Elsevier
Brain activity takes place in three spatial-plus time dimensions. This rather obvious claim
has been recently questioned by papers that, taking into account the big data outburst and …

Low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation alters the individual functional dynamical landscape

L Fan, Y Li, ZG Huang, W Zhang, X Wu, T Liu… - Cerebral …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a noninvasive approach to modulate

The thermodynamic brain and the evolution of intellect: the role of mental energy

E Déli, Z Kisvárday - Cognitive neurodynamics, 2020 - Springer
The living state is low entropy, highly complex organization, yet it is part of the energy cycle
of the environment. Due to the recurring presence of the resting state, stimulus and its …

Beyond neurons and spikes: cognon, the hierarchical dynamical unit of thought

M Rabinovich, C Bick, P Varona - Cognitive Neurodynamics, 2023 - Springer
From the dynamical point of view, most cognitive phenomena are hierarchical, transient and
sequential. Such cognitive spatio-temporal processes can be represented by a set of …

A Geometric Milieu Inside the Brain

A Tozzi, A Yurkin, JF Peters - Foundations of Science, 2022 - Springer
The brain, rather than being homogeneous, displays an almost infinite topological genus,
since it is punctured with a high number of “cavities”. We might think to the brain as a sponge …

Relationships between short and fast brain timescales

E Déli, A Tozzi, JF Peters - Cognitive neurodynamics, 2017 - Springer
Brain electric activity exhibits two important features: oscillations with different timescales,
characterized by diverse functional and psychological outcomes, and a temporal power law …

Near-infrared spectroscopy applied to complex systems and human hyperscanning networking
