The structure of neutron stars is determined by the equation of state of the matter inside the star, which relies on the knowledge of nuclear interactions. While radii of neutron stars mostly depend on the equation of state of neutron matter at nuclear densities, their maximum mass can be drastically affected by the appearance of hyperons at higher densities in the inner core of the star. We summarize recent quantum Monte Carlo results on the calculation of the equation of state of neutron matter at nuclear and higher densities. We report about the development of realistic hyperon-nucleon interactions based on the available experimental data for light- and medium-heavy hypernuclei and on the effect of $Lambda$ hyperons to the neutron star structure.

We review the equation of state (EoS) models covering a large range of temperatures, baryon number densities and electron fractions presently available on the textsc{CompOSE} database. These models are intended to be directly usable within numerical
simulations of core-collapse supernovae, binary neutron star mergers and proto-neutron star evolution. We discuss their compliance with existing constraints from astrophysical observations and nuclear data. For a selection of purely nucleonic models in reasonable agreement with the above constraints, after discussing the properties of cold matter, we review thermal properties for thermodynamic conditions relevant for core-collapse supernovae and binary neutron star mergers. We find that the latter are strongly influenced by the density dependence of the nucleon effective mass. The selected bunch of models is used to investigate the EoS dependence of hot star properties, where entropy per baryon and electron fraction profiles are inspired from proto-neutron star evolution. The $Gamma$-law analytical thermal EoS used in many simulations is found not to describe well these thermal properties of the EoS. However, it may offer a fair description of the structure of hot stars whenever thermal effects on the baryonic part are small, as shown here for proto-neutron stars starting from several seconds after bounce.
The properties of compact stars and their formation processes depend on many physical ingredients. The composition and the thermodynamics of the involved matter is one of them. We will investigate here uniform strongly interacting matter at densities
and temperatures, where potentially other components than free nucleons appear such as hyperons, mesons or even quarks. In this paper we will put the emphasis on two aspects of stellar matter with non-nucleonic degrees of freedom. First, we will study the phase diagram of baryonic matter with strangeness, showing that the onset of hyperons, as that of quark matter, could be related to a very rich phase structure with a large density domain covered by phase coexistence. Second, we will investigate thermal effects on the equation of state (EoS), showing that they favor the appearance of non-nucleonic particles. We will finish by reviewing some recent results on the impact of non-nucleonic degrees freedom in compact star mergers and core-collapse events, where thermal effects cannot be neglected.
Because of the presence of a liquid-gas phase transition in nuclear matter, compact-star matter can present a region of instability against the formation of clusters. We investigate this phase separation in a matter composed of neutrons, protons and
electrons, within a Skyrme-Lyon mean-field approach. Matter instability and phase properties are characterized through the study of the free-energy curvature. The effect of beta-equilibrium is also analyzed in detail, and we show that the opacity to neutrinos has an influence on the presence of clusterized matter in finite-temperature proto-neutron stars.
We investigate the effect of a microscopic three-body force on the proton and neutron superfluidity in the $^1S_0$ channel in $beta$-stable neutron star matter. It is found that the three-body force has only a small effect on the neutron $^1S_0$ pair
ing gap, but it suppresses strongly the proton $^1S_0$ superfluidity in $beta$-stable neutron star matter.

The Bethe-Brueckner-Goldstone many-body theory of the Nuclear Equation of State is reviewed in some details. In the theory, one performs an expansion in terms of the Brueckner two-body scattering matrix and an ordering of the corresponding many-body
diagrams according to the number of their hole-lines. Recent results are reported, both for symmetric and for pure neutron matter, based on realistic two-nucleon interactions. It is shown that there is strong evidence of convergence in the expansion. Once three-body forces are introduced, the phenomenological saturation point is reproduced and the theory is applied to the study of neutron star properties. One finds that in the interior of neutron stars the onset of hyperons strongly softens the Nuclear Equation of State. As a consequence, the maximum mass of neutron stars turns out to be at the lower limit of the present phenomenological observation.
