We review the current status and recent progress of microscopic many-body approaches and phenomenological models, which are employed to construct the equation of state of neutron stars. The equation of state is relevant for the description of their structure and dynamical properties, and it rules also the dynamics of core-collapse supernovae and binary neutron star mergers. We describe neutron star matter assuming that the main degrees of freedom are nucleons and hyperons, disregarding the appearance of quark matter. We compare the theoretical predictions of the different equation-of-state models with the currently available data coming from both terrestrial laboratory experiments and recent astrophysical observations. We also analyse the importance of the nuclear strong interaction and equation of state for the cooling properties of neutron stars. We discuss the main open challenges in the description of the equation of state, mainly focusing on the limits of the different many-body techniques, the so-called "hyperon puzzle," and the dependence of the direct URCA processes on the equation of state.

Neutrino-induced hyperon final-state interactions as constraints on the in-medium hyperon potential
Neutrino hyperon final-state interactions at SBND/DUNE constrain the sub-saturation U_Λ and U_Σ potentials, mapping them through a GM1 EOS to a neutron-star maximum-mass posterior set mainly by external priors.

Cooling of Hybrid Stars with a 2SC+$<dd>$ Phase
Hybrid stars with a 2SC+⟨dd⟩ quark core cool hotter than with 2SC and near CFL; with a 3P2 gap near 5×10^8 K their cooling curves pass through the observed temperatures of 3C58, Vela Jr., and Vela-like pulsars.

Theoretical modeling of approximate universality of tidally deformed neutron stars

In-medium hyperon potentials and the quarkyonic hyperon onset: charged $\Sigma$'s in $\beta$-equilibrium and the neutrino connection
In-medium potentials give the quarkyonic hyperon onset weight-2 leverage on U_Y, ban Σ⁻ in β-equilibrium, keep TOV softening ≲0.025 M_⊙, and leave core strangeness prior-dominated once neutrino FSI pin U_Λ(n0).

Accelerator neutrinos as a probe of in-medium hyperon potentials
StrangeMC forecasts that SBND/DUNE hyperon FSI observables constrain U_Λ(ρ0) to ~6 MeV after slope marginalization, with systematics distinct from hypernuclear data.

Influence of effective mass of the relativistic mean field theory on core collapse supernovae and compact objects
In relativistic mean field theory, a larger effective nucleon mass softens the supernova equation of state, yielding more compact proto-neutron stars, earlier black hole collapse, and higher-energy neutrino emission.

Astrophysical Constraints on Hadron--Quark Crossover in Hybrid Neutron Stars
A Bayesian analysis of smooth hadron-quark crossover neutron stars using NICER and GW170817 data favors a broad, high-density mixed transition, disfavors pure quark cores, and makes a neutron-star interpretation of GW...

Constraints on maximum neutron star mass from proto-neutron star evolution
Hyperonic neutron stars are inferred to cap at roughly 2.15 to 2.2 solar masses, while stars above 2.2 solar masses should have purely nucleonic cores.
