A New Approach to String Cosmology
read the original abstract
We discuss quotients of Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime by a discrete group in light of the AdS-CFT correspondence. Some quotients describe closed universes which expand from zero volume to a maximum size and then contract. Maldacena's conjecture suggests that they should be represented in string theory by suitable quotients of the boundary conformal field theory. We discuss the required identifications, and construct the states associated with the linearized supergravity modes in the cosmological background.

Dirichlet walls and the end of time
Generic Dirichlet-wall spacetimes can end in finite-time spacelike singularities at the wall, including walls that fall into BTZ black holes.

Dirichlet walls and the end of time
Dirichlet walls in Einstein gravity allow open sets of initial data to evolve until singularities reach the boundary in finite time.
