We consider dimensional reduction of cigar geometries which are obtained by a Wick rotation of black hole solutions. Originally the cigar geometry is smooth around the tip, but after the dimensional reduction along the Euclidean time direction, there appears an end-of-the-world brane (ETW brane). We derive the tension of the brane by two methods: bulk equations of motion and boundary equations of motion. In particular, for AdS7-soliton cross S4 and AdS4-soliton cross S7 backgrounds in M-theory, we find that the tension of the emerging ETW branes behaves as exp(-3Phi) in the string frame. This indicates the existence of such ETW branes in the strongly coupled regime of type 0A string theory.

    Metric summation produces the problem of time, topology summation produces the one-dimensional Hilbert space, and a timekeeper path integral gives observer-dependent holography.
