Born in 1944, I grew up in a world in which polio was both a gripping fear and real threat. Then in a matter of a few years-polio was eradicated by a vaccine developed by Jonas Salk. Later I learned that Salk's efforts were built on pioneering work of many others, including John Enders, Thomas Weller and Frederick Robbins (Nobelists, 1954), and David Bodian, who pioneered studies of polio patho...

A novel approach to temporal pattern recognition was recently introduced in the literature, called liquid computing. The model used was very complex, thus the present study uses a simplified version that is easier to understand. By exploring properties of the system with the simple setup, a better unders tanding of the complex version can be reached. A liquid computer needs a liquid memory and ...

In the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence it is well-known that correlation functions of local operators in the CFT are dual to boundary correlators computed in anti-de Sitter space. But from the point of view of AdS supergravity one of the most interesting questions is how quasi-local bulk gravitational physics emerges from the CFT. The most direct way to address this question is to study c...
