What is the state of the early Universe
Speaker(s): Samir Mathur
Abstract: String theory should give a well-defined answer to the following question: What is the state of matter in the limit of infinite energy density? We use results obtained from the understanding of black hole entropy to conjecture this equation of state, noting that the maximum entropy state in string t... read more

Resolving the information paradox: the fuzzball proposal
Speaker(s): Samir Mathur
Abstract: String theory gives a consistent theory of quantum gravity, so we can ask about the nature of black hole microstates in this theory. Studies of extremal and near-extremal microstates indicate that these microstates do not have a traditional horizon, which would have no data about the microstate in i... read more
