Neutron stars are extremely dense objects where atomic nuclei dissolve to produce extended soup of nucleons/baryons. Recent observation of neutron star mergers through gravitational waves has given rise to vigorous research activity in this area. In order to
make progress in understanding neutron stars, it is of utmost importance to understand the properties of such dense matter as well as accurately model its equation of state. In this talk I discuss the various patterns of organizations expected to arise in
dense baryonic matter and how modern developments in topological phase transitions in condensed matter systems combined with perturbative techniques in quantum chromodynamics, the theory of strong interactions, can inform our knowledge in this regard.<br class="">
