Null Geodesics, Local CFT Operators and AdS/CFT for Subregions
Raphael Bousso, Ben Freivogel, Stefan Leichenauer +2
We investigate the nature of the AdS/CFT duality between a subregion of the bulk and its boundary. In global AdS/CFT in the classical G_N=0 limit, the duality reduces to a boundary…
Eternal inflation predicts that time will end
Raphael Bousso, Ben Freivogel, Stefan Leichenauer +1
Present treatments of eternal inflation regulate infinities by imposing a geometric cutoff. We point out that some matter systems reach the cutoff in finite time. This implies a no…
Predictions from Star Formation in the Multiverse
Raphael Bousso, Stefan Leichenauer
We compute trivariate probability distributions in the landscape, scanning simultaneously over the cosmological constant, the primordial density contrast, and spatial curvature. We…
Multiverse Understanding of Cosmological Coincidences
Raphael Bousso, Lawrence J. Hall, Yasunori Nomura
There is a deep cosmological mystery: although dependent on very different underlying physics, the timescales of structure formation, of galaxy cooling (both radiatively and agains…
Complementarity in the Multiverse
Raphael Bousso
In the multiverse, as in AdS, light-cones relate bulk points to boundary scales. This holographic UV-IR connection defines a preferred global time cut-off that regulates the diverg…
