The entorhinal map of space.

Grid Cells and the Entorhinal Map of Space

A map of abstract relational knowledge in the human hippocampal–entorhinal cortex

The hippocampal-entorhinal system encodes a map of space that guides spatial navigation. Goal-directed behaviour outside of spatial navigation similarly requires a representation of abstract forms of relational knowledge. This information relies on the same neural system, but it is not known whether the organisational principles governing continuous maps may extend to the implicit encoding of d...

Spatial Representation: Maps of Fragmented Space

Grid cells in medial entorhinal cortex are thought to act as a neural metric for spatial navigation. A new study has examined the ability of grid cells to use self-motion cues to form a global map across fragmented spaces.

The effect of intraperitoneal injection of N6-cyclohexyladenosine, a selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist, on entorhinal cortex-kindled seizures in rats

The effects of intraperitoneal injection of N6-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA, a selective adenosine A1 receptor agonist) and 8-cyclopenthyle-I-3-dimethylexanthine (CPT, a selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist) on entorhinal cortex-kindled seizures were investigated. Fully entorhinal cortex-kindled rats received normal saline (control), CHA (0.06, 0.12 and 0.25 mg/kg) or CPT (0.06 and 0.12 mg/kg...

A Note on Quadratic Maps for Hilbert Space Operators

In this paper, we introduce the notion of sesquilinear map on Β(H) . Based on this notion, we define the quadratic map, which is the generalization of positive linear map. With the help of this concept, we prove several well-known equality and inequality...
