Time-dependent spacetimes in AdS-CFT

Regular Seminar Simon Ross (Durham)

at:
16:00 IC
room H503
abstract:

I will discuss the relation between bulk and boundary for the smooth 'bubble of nothing' solution in AdS, and for the locally AdS black hole. I will explain the relation between horizons and thermodynamics in bulk and boundary, and discuss vacuum ambiguities.
