Big Bangs and Bounces on the Brane
A. J. M. Medved
In view of our accelerating universe, one of the outstanding theoretical issues is the absence of a quantum-gravitational description of de Sitter space. Although speculative, an i…
Bad News on the Brane
A. J. M. Medved
There has been substantial interest in obtaining a quantum-gravitational description of de Sitter space. However, any such attempts have encountered formidable obstacles, and new p…
Asymptotically Flat Holography and Strings on the Horizon
A. J. M. Medved
Recently, Klemm and others [hep-th/0104141] have successfully generalized the Cardy-Verlinde formula for an asymptotically flat spacetime of arbitrary dimensionality. And yet, from…
AdS Holography and Strings on the Horizon
A. J. M. Medved
The microscopic origin of black hole entropy remains one of the more intriguing open questions in theoretical physics. A subplot in this drama is the renowned Cardy-Verlinde formul…
