![]() | Regulating Eternal Inflation with the UV/IR connection Speaker(s): Ben Freivogel
Abstract: I will discuss a recent proposal to regulate the infinities of eternal inflation by relating a late-time cutoff in the bulk to a short-distance cutoff on the conformal boundary of the spacetime.

![]() | On the Microscopic Description of the Kerr Black Hole Speaker(s): Alexander Maloney
Abstract: We describe recent progress on the quantum description of the Kerr black hole. Previous descriptions of black hole microstates have relied on the existence of near-horizon regions with conformal symmetry, and hence have only worked for extremal or supersymmetric black holes. We argue that the states... read more

![]() | Constraining primordial non-Gaussianity with large-scale structure Speaker(s): Licia Verde
Abstract: Constraining primordial non-Gaussianity can offer a window into the early universe, and into testing the inflationary paradigm, which is fully complementary to the approach offered by Cosmic Microwave Background polarization.
Large-scale structure and galaxy surveys have recently received renewed ... read more

![]() | Hints from galaxies to a still better cosmology Speaker(s): James Peebles
Abstract: The network of tests shows the LCDM cosmology is a good approximation to what actually happened, but that need not mean it has all the physics relevant to cosmology back to light element formation. I will review properties of galaxies that seem to be particularly difficult to understand within LCDM ... read more
